*I'm so glad youi dropped by! (and even a bit surprised that you're reading this) Please visit RosannaFiorazo.com for MUCH more information, full BIO, Journal and Concert photos! QUICK UPDATE: Recently another one of my songs (Hallelujah) was selected to be on a compilation CD called, "Higher Sounds" - Beautiful Faith. Before this, my song "Lullaby" was selected to be on a UK compilation called "Following Fire" - with artists like Matt Redman, Delirious, Phil Joel and others. Finally, my song "Only One God" (that won me a Los Angeles music award) was chosen to be on an Independent Artist CD. But the song of mine that has received the most radio air play is "He's Exalted". ANYWAY, I started Cosmetology school last year and I love learning to cut hair, along with other beauty secrets. (insert time management needs here) I'm still able to tour ..ed weekends, SO if you're interested in having me play in your church/city, I most always travel with a small band - let me know if you'd like more information. I'm originally from Toronto, Canada, lived in Los Angeles for 13 years, and now live in Wisconsin with my husband Dave. I've been blessed to be able to use the gifts God gave me to minister all over, so don't hesitate to ask about coming to your church or Christian music event. I love people who are REAL, as I'm about as broken as they come. Some may think that because I have a music ministry that I have it together, but the truth is that God gives me grace to face life a day at a time and share whatever I'm able with those He puts in my path. I'm constantly learning to be a better Christian, and it's a constant process; sometimes challenging or frustrating, but always rewarding. ABOUT "Haven't you heard..." THE NEW PROJECT: On the brand new Gracie Note Music release, "Haven't you heard..." (recorded in Nashville), thanks to a solid engineer, I had band members from Faith Hill & Brooks and Dunn play on the project. Also, Dove Award winner, Mitch McVicker sings with me on a remake of Rich Mullins' song "My Deliverer". Mixed in Los Angeles by Grammy Award winner Jim Watts, along with Jeffrey David, my new album features strong guitars, crisp vocals, and songs that are easy to sing along to, ultimately drawing you closer to the Lord Jesus Christ. : : : : : : : : GRACIE NOTE MUSIC is an Independent Christian Music Label, simply my 'Doing Business As' name. *Let me know if your church or ministry might be interested in special music for a service, Christian Music for an OUTREACH event, or Worship for an evening concert or related event at your church. God bless you and thanks for keeping me in mind.

Sounds Like: Review by Trevor Kirk (Cross Rhythms UK) HAVEN'T YOU HEARD ... "Over the last few years I have been very impressed by the number of CCM artists who turn out quality product on what must be a small budget, small compared to the mega-buck projects of the big labels. Singer, songwriter and worship leader from Wisconsin Rosanna Fiorazo is a case in point. Of the 11 songs on this CD, she wrote 10 of them, the odd man out being the Rich Mullins and Mitch McVicker-penned classic from 'The Jesus Record', "My Deliverer". Mitch himself adds his own voice to a reading that is nothing like the kiddie chorus and anthemic orchestral arrangement of the original. Rosanna's style is good, straightforward pop, her voice is clear and accurate with a good range, and her songs are direct, challenging and unambiguous - there's no doubt where she's coming from. Mix in accomplished musicians and singers, and here we have a very good quality indie release that is worth investigating."*****************************************"Wel l, I got your CD finally! I left Amarillo after Christmas and drove to Dallas, then Houston and it is still the only CD I'm listening to in my car, it is just beautiful!! I am so grateful I found you." -Robin, Texas *****************************************"Rosanna, I really Love your cd, the words and music reach down to the soul. You have a heavenly voice. The Lord has blessed you greatly." - Scott, Washington ******************************************Heyyy! ... Im listening to Im Free as i get ready for school! Its become a little routine that i listen to that song everyday before school! so yea! I Hope as is well with you! GOD BLESS YOU! - Deb, Ohio *********************************************"So I walk in to Family Christian Store to do some Christmas shopping and I hear some really nice music. I go to the counter and ask what CD is that and they say, "That's Rosanna Fiorazo playing live in the store today." WOW! I got your CD immediately and it's sooooo good!" -Linda, Wisconsin *********************************************"Luved your cover story at InTheTimes.com!! You are so pretty! I 'll have to get your new album! Blessings!" - Flower, CA ***************************************Rosanna has a real music pedigree having performed with Bobby Kimball of Toto, but since being saved she has turned her talents to God's use...She plays it straight down the middle of the road, but it is all so polished and well done you can't fault her for being formulaic - it sounds so good that it just gets in there and you're humming those country-tinged pop and rock tunes all day. The lyrics not only speak of worship but how you can find God every day ... because it is just so singable you don't feel like you're being preached at. - REVIEW by Philip Crawley
