Recorded in Atlanta and Los Angeles, India.Arieās fifth studio album features additional production from singer/songwriter David Ryan Harris and songwriter Michael Ruff.

āI wasnāt ready until now,ā she says. āI trusted my intuition through every line and note of every song on this album. And the ease of the flow is always a sign that I am in the right place, doing the right thing. And that is all Iāve ever wanted. I created SongVersation from that place."
