“On Drama Queen, Menzel sings like the great dance and disco diva vocalists of the ’70s and ’80s. It’s hard not to conjure images of Cher or even Celine Dion. There is power and confidence in the music, born from real achievement and know-how”– AMERICAN SONGWRITER
“Though a new genre for Menzel, the songwriting is a seamless continuation of the personal storytelling that’s forever been a trademark of her original discography.” – GRAMMY.COM
“Idina Menzel Is the Newest Queen of Disco and Her New Album Proves It” – PARADE
Multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter and Tony Award-winning performer, Idina Menzel, has released her highly anticipated dance project Drama Queen via BMG.
The electrifying album showcases her powerhouse vocals through soaring anthems, disco-infused beats, and just the right amount of drama. Menzel worked alongside global hitmakers Nile Rodgers, Jake Shears, Justin Tranter, Sir Nolan, Simon Wilcox, Laura Veltz, Jim Eliot, Maty Noyes, Mitch Allan, Lindy Robbins, Chantry Johnson, Michelle Zarlenga and more to create a body of work that is a departure from what she’s put out in the past. Harnessing the same unforgettable presence both on the stage and the big screen, Drama Queen is the latest project in which Menzel employs her greatest superpower.

“Paradise (featuring Nile Rodgers),” which was released earlier this week, was produced by Nile Rodgers, who co-wrote with Idina and Jonas Myrin. Idina had this to say about the track, “We had been listening to Nile’s ‘Good times’ – living and feeling it. We just started vibing on a melody and the lyric and this idea that, even though we may all be locked in our homes right now, you can always find your disco ball wherever it may be. There was a longing to be back together singing and dancing our hearts out.”

AMNPLIFY – ML
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
