Valerie Janlois … the voice!

“SAN FRANCISCO, CA- On January 17, 2012, Bay Area singer songwriter Valerie JanLois will release her self-produced sophomore album, dos, the follow up to her 2010 full length debut, No Drop of Love (Is Ever Wasted). JanLois is donating a portion of the proceeds from album sales to PermanentPeace.Org. The goal of PermanentPeace.Org is to empower people everywhere with knowledge that can be used to create peace worldwide—timeless knowledge about the power of consciousness as brought to light by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, and validated thoroughly in scientific research. “PermanentPeace.Org promotes the most cutting-edge, successful peace-creating technologies ever dreamed of,” says JanLois.  “It’s an amazing organization that needs to become more well-known.” Valerie believes strongly in giving back to the community. In addition to PermanentPeace.Org, Valerie is supporting two more non-profits with her new release: the Purusha Program and the Mother Divine Program. This new album includes some of JanLois’ most powerful piano filled ballads to date, while also incorporating the sounds of swing, folk, soul, jazz, and reggae. “dos is an album about following the bliss and choosing happiness,” says JanLois.  Her song “Mothers of the World” is about the the power that is within.  “We go within and light the way, literally; not only for ourselves but for the world,” explains JanLois.  “This dovetails perfectly with what PermanentPeace.Orgis all about.  It’s real. ’Concise’, the opening track on dos, is about how everything that we see, hear, taste, touch and smell, we digest and ultimately become.  One of my favorite tracks on the album, ‘Hearts of Angels’, is about how even in the depths of heartbreak we see our capacity for love.  The deeper we go, the higher we fly.”
