Syrian-Armenian singer Rena De has been living and working in Armenia for several years. Before settling in Yerevan, she often came to her homeland with concerts.
“When I arrived in Armenia, I already knew what I would be doing - definitely performing. I remember that before my arrival in Yerevan, I already had a concert planned” - Rena said.
Rena is currently giving underground concerts. She performs blues, funk, jazz, R&B but she says that it is difficult for her to single out a particular musical genre that she prefers. She says that she has her own style that describes her: "I don't like big scenes because I like feeling the audience, the closer I am to the audience, the more I feel the energy between us."
Rena De participated in The Voice of Lebanon. Her daughter encouraged her to take part in the contest: “It was a very good experience, I got to know a lot of talented musicians and artists. Participation in The Voice was a new creative stage for me."
In addition to singing, Rena De also organizes creative meetings. She has good relations with local musicians and artists, and they collaborate as well: “I like new projects, I always bring together different musicians, singers, support them, hold jam sessions. During these meetings, people get to know each other, new bands are formed. Now I have a large band of 7 people” - Rena said.
According to the singer, one can find inspiration in everything in Yerevan. She assures that in order to achieve success, one just shouldn’t be afraid, should believe and listen to the inner voice.
