Singer/songwriter Anita Athavale began playing guitar and writing songs when she was 16, because, as she puts it, “I had some things I wanted to express.”

The Windsor, Ontario, native continues her own personal evolution of expression on her second full-length album, In the Noise.

Recorded at Calgary’s Sundae Sound Studio and co-produced by Athavale and former ChixDiggit drummer, Dave Alcock, the album has a fuller, rockier sound than her 2002 debut album, The First Time, thanks in part to having a full band augment her strong songwriting.

Athavale has been busy of late, not only playing a showcase performance at the Hotel Café in Los Angeles, but also taking part in Junofest last month.
