Artist: ZINNIA

Who: “The Toronto-based art-pop project of Rachael Cardiello. With layered synth and
driving beats she brings an explosive range to her writing, equal parts intimate and fierce.”

Track: ‘REQUIEM’- new single from her debut album ‘Sensations in Two Dot‘,
out 22 November

Score: Up and coming singer/songwriter Zinnia combines Kate Bush‘s experimental way of writing adventurous pop songs and St. Vincent‘s colorful vocality. ‘Requiem‘ is an impressive illustration of her huge talent. Translating her feelings about a long-lost relationship into a aroused and nostalgic reflection is both touching and imposing.

NOW PLAYING! Alluring Debut Album By Canadian Singer/Songwriter ZINNIA – Here’s ‘SENSATIONS IN TWO DOT’…

Posted on by JL

1 December 2019

Artist: ZINNIA

Who: “The Toronto-based art-pop project of Rachael Cardiello.
With layered synth and driving beats she brings an explosive range
to her writing, equal parts intimate and fierce.”

Album: SENSATIONS IN TWO DOT

Released: 22 November 2019

Zinnia about her alluring debut: “‘Sensations in Two Dot’ focuses on moments of
doubt, creative, societal, and persona, exploring what it means to hold compassion
through the multifaceted, grey areas of life. Whether in the isolated town of Two Dot,
Montana (population 143) or the buzzing streets of Toronto (population 2.6 million),
these nine songs probe the complex, unsettling similarities found in the human experience:
the hauntings of unrelenting dreams, tensions and tender triumphs in relationships, systems
of abuse threaded through communities, and the search for compassion and visibility in everyday interactions.”

TUTV says: Mesmeric vox and gripping songwriter you can file
easily next to Angel Olsen, Sharon Van Etten and St. Vincent

Toronto Singer-Songwriter ZINNIA Sparkles On Her New Superb Single ‘BULLETS’…

Posted on by JL

Daily fuel to load your sonic batteries…

22 March 2019

Turn Up The Volume fell in love with ZINNIA, the Toronto-based art pop project of
Rachael Cardiello, on hearing her previous stirring musing LUPINS. Now on her new
single BULLETS she displays again her enraptured songwriting skills.

“Bullets was written four years ago on an old upright at my mom’s house in Montana. I’ve carried it with me since then and sifted it through many arrangements and band settings. Though written in response to specific events, it has been heartbreaking to see the song
remain relevant over these past years as the same struggles appear in the lives of those
close and far” says Cardiello.

‘Bullets‘ is a powerful piece of dramatic pop magnificence with Cardiello‘s mesmerizing
vox along side overwhelming synth parts growing crescendo along the way and lifting
the song to arresting heights. So impressive, so exquisite and so awe-inspiring. Zinnia definitely deserves a place next to first-class singer/songwriters Sharon Van Etten and
St. Vincent. No doubt about that.

Band: ZINNIA

Who: A Toronto-based art-pop project of Rachael Cardiello producing “velvety, 80s-inspired layered synth and driving beats and bringing an explosive range to Cardiello’s writing, equal parts intimate and fierce”.

Track: LUPINS – “A tribute to the search for softness and compassion in the face of struggle. Pulled from the wreckage of realizing not all pain can be healed. With vulnerability comes a deep fragility.”

Score: ‘Lupins‘ is a heartfelt and stirring musing. The bewitching combination of glistening synths, poetic guitars, romantic orchestration and Cardiello‘s gripping and delicate voice is so dreamlike and relieving. A sensibility that makes me think of the emotive atmospherics of Mazzy Starr and The Sundays. Capture the vulnerable mood right here…
