RAANI (rah-nee) is an Edmonton based pop/soul singer-songwriter. She just completed the Judy Stakee (Senior Vice President of Creative at Warner Chappell Music for 20 years) ‘It All Starts With a Song’ retreat on Bowen Island. It was an incredible and transformative experience for both her songwriting and personal development. She released her single ‘All My Ladies’ in February 2016. It received a nomination for ‘R&B/ Soul Recording of the Year’ at the 2016 Edmonton Music Awards. Her debut self-titled EP was released in October 2014. Her single ‘Be Your Friend feat. Chips’ received a 2015 Edmonton Music Award nomination for ‘Best Pop Recording of the Year.’ It was also selected to be a featured song in the 2015 Edmonton Music Awards Compilation CD. One of the highlights of RAANI’s EP release was a fan-made cover video of ‘Be Your Friend feat. Chips.' Currently, she is writing and recording demos, building her live show and planning a Western Canada tour for June 2018. “Natasha is incredibly hard working and passionately driven to succeed as a performing artist. She has a bright future ahead and is a great representative for the City of Edmonton, Province of Alberta and, indeed, all of Canada in the arts community.” Laurie Brown Artist Manager Porch Swing Entertainment
