A little something about WHY Artists on Fire

For many of our loyal fans and supporters, you have seen the Annie Armen Show travel through the world of causes, to the world of business, with occasional music programs featuring celebrity artists such as Chico Vega's Legendary Drifters, Rahmlee, Rob Mullins, and more.  Throughout the years, many of you have shared observations such as, "Annie, there is something so unique about your program.  Your show is all heart, all soul, you're on fire, your message is pure in seeking truth and solutions, and your music production rocks.  When you speak, you always communicate with heart, humor, wisdom, rhythm and infectious energy.  You are a drummer of words, etc..."  

Well, each and every one of you are highly astute in your observations!  WHY? Next to my number one core value of Faith, music has always been and will always be my core passion, rooted in my DNA since birth.  I was 3 years old when I first snuck into my dad's basement in New York to go on the drums and play a complex, time signature of 9/4.  Since then, I took my passion for music and rhythm and applied it in business and in life through communication:  Speaking | Consulting | Writing | Broadcasting | Performing

As a Communications Artist today, which includes the percussionist, drummer and singer side of me, how can I possibly turn my head the other way and not pay my respect to TRUE ARTISTS ON FIRE from the world of music?  Artists who are dedicated to their craft with all heart and soul; artists who push forward no matter how extenuating their circumstances; artists who have embraced resistance, in many cases ... lack of support from family and loved ones, judgment from folks in suits, while staying true and loyal to their dream.  Artists who walk to the beat of SHOW MUST GO ON, the very beat taught in business. 

Because I have experienced and live BOTH sides of the world -- music and business -- today, I am blessed with this rare privilege to be a soulful voice for our genuine artists who are ON FIRE, artists who do not know the meaning of quit.  We will talk about their lessons learned from failures, and their forward successes as a result thereof.

Moment of Hurricane Truth
Out of all the series and programs I have produced and aired throughout the years since television, this particular series -- Artists ON FIRE -- IS representative of my heart and soul, authentic to my very core and being!  What you will hear, what you will experience, will be nothing short of heart, love, soul, bringing out hidden treasures and details, often and unfortunately overlooked by many.
