Most would agree most popular artists out there have something truly special to give to their fans. This goes above the typical attributes like raw talent, amazing songs, nice voice, or even a very marketable look, sound and image. There's something truly infectious at the core of these artists that simply makes us feel good when we listen to them. Whatever "it" is - they all seem to have "it".

Today I listened to the latest CD from Connecticut based singer/songwriter phenom Irena Hart (Hart Strings - 2011 (Popcore Entertainment) who was born in the Ukraine. Venturing to her website it's clearly a professional presentation showing this is her debut release. From start to finish this CD from Hart is very pleasurable. It has a solid Modern-Dance quality to it and even dabbles in Hip-Hop and Power Pop. Any fans of any of these musical styles will enjoy this latest release from Hart. It's clearly marketed for those who like a choreographed female front with a mystique of say a Lady Ga Ga, Christine Aguilera, and even Brittany Spears. I get the impression Hart is rolling with what she knows as a performer. In other words he may not have the legendary vocal ability of say Adele but who cares she hits the mark remarkably well just being who he is. Favorite tracks include (Heart Strings), (On the Dance Floor, and (Deeper Everyday). All tracks have amazing feel to them and will have you coming back for more. Within each piece Hart finds her soul and delivers her best musical mojo. The musical touches of her band are spot on and just makes the whole CD more enjoyable. The overall vibe is upbeat, positive and will get you on the dance floor for sure. .

I see Hart as a real diamond in the rough, a real up and comer. As time goes by she will no doubt refine and fine-tune his live performances and develop and even broader fanbase here in the US. I am eager to hear and see what the future holds for this amazing artist. She clearly has the total package required to garner success her in the US market. In close most famous artists out there have "it" I'm not so sure what it but Irena Hart definitely has whatever "it" may be.
