Armenian Singer/Songwriter Rosa Linn Releases Her EP ‘Lay Your Hands Upon My Heart’ – Review

Armenian singer/songwriter Rosa Linn had us a bit obsessed with her music since she appeared on the Eurovision Song Contest in 2022. She entered with the song Snap which caught our attention immediately with its strong Country/Folk vibes.

Fast forward to December 2022 – Snap was constantly played across French Radio stations whenever we were there (which is a lot) . The track was still on many playlists across major French radio stations on our last visit back in May 2023 – proving just how popular the song was and is!

Rosa Linn has had such an incredible journey since Eurovision! She has received top 40 radio play in 70 Territories, reached Worldwide streams now at over 1 billion, she went Platinum and Gold in 23 countries, Featured on over 200 Spotify Editorial Playlists including “Today’s Top Hits” and has over 5 Million UGC videos on Tik Tok.

Rosa Linn is currently on tour across the US supporting Ed Sheeran alongside Little Big Town. She has also just released her EP Lay Your Hands Upon My Heart.

The EP kicks off with the phenomenal Snap! A song that deserves the attention it has so far received and so much more! It’s a beautifully catchy tune that has the ability to be a worldwide hit! In many countries of course, it already has been but we would love to see it reach mainstream success across the US, UK and beyond!

Hallelujah was Linn’s last single. An up beat track, this song holds elements of dance music and is one of those songs that can have multiple remixes. We would love to hear an acoustic version. It’s another track that would fare well at Eurovision and would certainly chart well across Europe if not beyond!

Title track Lay Your Hands Upon My Heart is an atmospheric trance styled anthem that fans of Taylor Swift’s 1989 would likely love. It delivers a beautiful melody throughout in a modern pop/folk fashion!

Upbeat, pop infused Mountains is a fun bop of a song! A sweet guitar riff that brings out a 90’s/00’s dream pop edge to it!

Synthpop If I Were You is reminiscent to that of an 80’s hit!

Never Be Mine is a sensational piano ballad which really showcases a more emotive and melodic way to Linn’s voice. This is the kind of song that you can imagine soaring throughout a live setting in a stadium concert. The fact she is supporting Sheeran on tour, this has probably been a moment already! It’s a passionate song that is something you can imagine P!nk releasing!

Lay Your Hands Upon My Heart is a very strong, mixed genre (Pop-Folk, Alternative dance, dream pop, synthpop, electropop, electronic rock) EP with a collection of well written and beautifully produced potential chart topping hits!

Rosa Linn is set for an incredibly bright future which could likely include worldwide stardom!
