With her roots in folk and the feel good sounds of the 60’s and 70’s, Malena Zanjani brings a freshness and modern sound to this style. Her delivery is upbeat and positive and her songs deliver those types of messages one would find in a fortune cookie. But it’s a fortune we’re happy to find and one that we might fold and keep in our wallet. We’re going to talk to Malena about being a young singer-songwriter and the challenges to writing songs that are relevant yet mainstream.
Enjoy!
