Alice Russell - English neo-soul, electronic funk, gospel, jazz! There's really some amazing stuff happening in England recently:
Alice Russell http://www.allmusic.com/c...qykldhe~T2 Check out 'A Fly in the Hand' especially. Great mid-tempo electro-funk jam with passionate vocals. Here's a fairly long snippet: http://www.tunes.co.uk/tu...11334.html MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/alicerusselluk And in spite of her voice, she looks like this: | |

I'm English but I'd never heard of her.
That's an amazing voice. She sounds like a slightly smoother Carleen Anderson. She also has this Dusty Springfield-esque breathlessness which I like a lot. | |

I think I'll have to get some of those albums. Judging from the samples I don't think I'd dig everything as much as 'A Fly in the Hand' but it seems interesting enough. She has a live DVD out as well. | |

I first heard of her from a Morcheeba compilation disc and found under the Munka Moon about a year after and I put that song on repeat for like 3 days straight An absolutely stellar and amazing song and a killer voice. I cannot praise this chick enough 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

I love the soul/acidjazz scene in the UK. I always feel like they are 10 steps ahead of the US in this department. But Justin says he's never heard of her so maybe I'm wrong But it sure feels that way when I stumble upon UK releases of this kind 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |
