Athena initially learned of her hero’s awareness of her during an interview years prior, in which a journalist shared that when she asked Leonard who his favourite Greek singer was, he had quickly responded with Athena as his choice.  The single became the album’s single reaching the 3 million mark and won a Grammy

Athena teamed up with Producer Ethan Allen (Ben Harper, Sheryl Crow) for her first US record, Ready For The Sun. The album received rave reviews, including the Huffington Post hailing Athena’s voice as “both heartwarming and majestic” and Paul Zollo from American Songwriter saying she is a “a serious songwriter… brilliance of words… such grace and power” and calling her song Stronger “ a soul standard”.
