IONNA on Shockoe Sessions Live! synth pop rock

IONNA is a five piece synth-driven electronic music project created by singer-songwriter and producer Soraya Silene. IONNA writes songs at the liminal moment of emotion, gauzed in a stylized, synth/guitar arrangement, eager drums, and a Hope Sandoval-shaped vocal delivery. When you listen to IONNA, you can hear the influences of Kate Bush, The Cure, and St.Vincent. IONNA’s driving melodies move between being danceable and other times, ambient, calling the listener to the universal and collective.
