An Oakland, California native of Iranian heritage, Adrienne Shamszad sings revolutionary anthems, prayerful power ballads, blues, lullabies, and love songs in English and in Farsi. Her strong and soulful voice, expressive guitar work and bold performance style have made her a popular West Coast performer for over a decade.
Her musical artistry is indeed something to behold. She is mystical, yet earthy. At one moment lofty, the next low-down. Adrienne's poetry is intimate and genuine, inspired by the mystic Poets of Iran as much as the folk poet-songwriters of the 60s and 70s. She can transform a stage into a sacred place with the magic of her voice.

Artist's Statement
Report
Music is a journey for me. It is an ongoing process of evolution and self-discovery, in the least cliche new-ager sense you could imagine. Music is like a powerful ocean: once you get in past a certain point you either find the balance of surrender-surf-swim OR you try to fight the inevitable and get totally screwed.

Shelter Within began in response to the 'Shelter in Place' orders at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020 and has maintained as a loving community throughout. The class is intended to provide a space for you to breathe deeply and lighten your energetic load. This time is for us to stretch, sing, sometimes sweat, laugh, cry and feel better - together.
