Natalie Roth – New Face, New Voice, New Direction?

Natalie Roth is doing all of the above. Roth is a competent, thoughtful songwriter who’s often in a multi-mode, eclectic mix of almost pop country music, world music, and pure pop. She has some fun moments, and some pretty intriguing deeper moments, like her current song Daddy, which is a sort of emotional epic of separation with a child torn between parents.

If you haven’t heard Roth before, she’s an American artist  from California with strong Israeli roots in her music. She’s quite different in one way from most contemporary music artists, with a background from childhood in movies including Baby Sister, Lima: Breaking the Silence, The Delta Force, Iran: Days of Crisis, Rentfree and a lot more.

Ok, So If You Cross A Songwriter With A Video Artist, What Do You Get? Natalie ROTH

Artists have a range of strengths and “areas of exploration” when it comes to videos. Not Natalie Roth. She started singing at the age of 3, and worked in films from there on, including some with Lee Marvin and Raquel Welch. Roth is a natural in videos, and the results are interesting to watch. Add the songs, and you have a virtual production company writing its own songs.

This particular Los Angeles Music Artist, unlike many, obviously has her own ideas. Roth creates videos which are quite different. Consider the usual music video, then consider a ballad-like, tough call video about a child faced with parental separation called Daddy. Not exactly the same thing. It’s worth mentioning that real artists don’t follow the herd, and Roth, to her credit, certainly doesn’t.

Her songs are a pretty eclectic mix of modern music and Israeli music, following both her generation and her cultural heritage. The results are quite unpredictable. She can put together a good pop hook, too, among the other music. You’ll see Daddy followed by songs like Abandoned, Rent Free, and others. She’s no one trick wonder with her songwriting, obviously, and even does a bit of social comment in Israel, A Song for Peace.

When you listen to her music and watch her videos, that experience comes out in various ways. Daddy is a truly confronting video in one way, putting the viewer in the child’s position between parents. Roth puts herself in a relatively unobtrusive part of the video, letting the duet with Israeli singer Avi Toledano flow.
