CMJ News Story: Happy Noush Year

 

Noush Skaugen is no stranger to adventure. Born in Scandinavia, raised in Britain, and now based in Los Angeles, the singer/songwriter/actress is back in the studio writing new material after a whirlwind year of acting and touring to promote her debut album, Lost And Found (Storytown Entertainment). “I like to be busy,” she flatly states. “I love making music, I love acting, I just want to keep doing what I love.” With more movie and TV roles and plans for a new album and US tour, 2009 is set to be a busy year for the multitasker. “I just want to stay on the road,” she says. “I love getting out there and playing in front of people.”

 

Her acting ambitions still run high after a lead role in the thriller, The Road to Empire, a result of her first theatrical audition. A hit on the independent film circuit, the film screened at film festivals in London, Shanghai, Brazil, Ireland and Houston. As yet, the movie has no set date for a wider release. In the coming year, she hopes to do some more TV acting as well after starring in an episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. She also commented about rumors of her involvement in a Wonder Woman film, saying it would be a “childhood dream” to play the lead role. Either way, she says she’s going full force ahead: “It’s going to be a great year.”
