Rosanna Palmer
Country: Australia
Genre: Hard Rock
"For most of the 1980's, Rosanna Palmer was recognized throughout Australia as the lead vocalist/guitarist in the band Rosanna's Raiders. By the decade's end, she was receiving mail from the USA, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Czechoslovakia, Finland and Switzerland. The correspondence generated by the worldwide release of two Rosanna's Raiders rock albums somehow found its way Down Under.
Rosanna is a prolific songwriter who has penned scores of rock songs and dozens of praise and worship oriented choruses.
Away from the spotlight, she is quiet, unassuming and speaks in a whisper-like voice. She smiles a lot. Her eyes sparkle in conversation, especially when the topic centres on Jesus.
Rosanna's strong Christian faith and her love of music have enabled her to join together the things that matter most. She no longer sings about boy-meets-girl scenarios. Instead, her material deals with other realities of life.. child abuse, loneliness, the search for God, good and evil, sorrow and joy. Recurring themes in her writing include warnings of the devil's deceptions and passionate pleas to consider a commitment to Christ.
Rosanna Palmer has influenced many lives. She lives in the real world where she encounters real people, many of them desperately searching for Truth. Her songs have penetrated pagan pubs; her choruses have encouraged Christians around the world."
