Sirusho

Siranush Harutunyan, also known as Sirusho in the professional field, is an outstanding Armenian pop singer. Her musical style is a mixture of Armenian folk features and modern world music. She has reached international recognition and now represents Armenia to the world with her unique voice.

SIRUSHO’S BIOGRAPHY

Sirusho was born on January 7, 1987, in Yerevan, Armenia. She grew up in a family of talented artists. Sirusho’s father, Hrachya Harutyunyan is an actor and director.  Her mother, Syuzan Margaryan is a famous Armenian singer who was at the peak of her fame in the 1990s.

Sirusho’s career started in her early childhood. She began singing when she was only 10 months old. At at the age of 2, she could already sing full songs. “Lusabats,” an old Armenian folk song written by Komitas, is one of the songs which Sirusho used to perform in her childhood. At the age of 7, she already started writing her own songs both in Armenian and in English. She had her first concert when she was only eight years old. A year later she took part in the Contest of Young Talents and won her first award for her own composition. At the age of 13, Sirusho made another significant step towards her career and released her first studio album.

Once, during her interview, Sirusho said, “I have never been one of those children who dreamed of becoming a singer. I was a little kid and people would ask me to sing at events. Every time after I sang, I would see the amazed looks on their faces, and I couldn’t figure out the reason. I mean, I thought I wasn’t doing a hard thing, I was just singing the way I felt the music.”

SHERAM and HIMA

Sirusho’s next big step in the music industry was folk music. She was working on folk songs by Gusan Sheram and later on published an album titled Sheram. “Shorora” the lead single from the album became a national heat as well as the album itself. Receiving the Best Female Artist of the Year award, Sirusho became one of the youngest performers to be awarded.

In her acceptance speech she mentioned, “I have worked and toured a lot this year, and even in a few hours after this event, I’ll be flying to the U.S. for concerts, and I want to thank you all for giving me wings for all the future “flights” of my life.”

Her next single was “Heranum em” that she wrote herself. It became one of her biggest and the most successful hits.

In 2006 both the Armenian music industry lost one of its best artists, Varduhi Vardanyan. It was also a big loss for Sirusho since they were very close friends. After Varduhi’s death, Sirusho composed her song titled “Mez Vochinch Chi Bazhani” (“Nothing Will Part Us”) and dedicated it to her. As Sirusho’s other songs, this one also became very popular and received a high ranking.
