04/17/2013 Toro Magazine, Feature story , 'Woman to Watch: Aria Tesolin '

"... that sense of maturity shows in her new, now adult work....Tesolin’s lyrics now work through life’s more pressing challenges: isolation, faith, overcoming...The songwriter's sound borrows from a buffet of genres. Pop, rock n' roll, jazz, and — of course — opera all trade jabs in any given piece. Ascension’s title track, for example, is at once an introspective play on musical theatre, and a demented Cohen-esque waltz.”
