I think i have a knack for finding bands and artists that then become huge. It all started with My Chemical Romance, then Alexisonfire (they were pretty big before i got on them, but soon after listening and liking Alexis they got on national television) and on and on. But this one is new...I literally found Lissie online on YouTube. She did a cover of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance. Instantly i became curious because i could hear something different about this girl. After listening to here newest single 'When I'm Alone' i became hooked. I don't know hcow many times i listened to that song that week but it must of been in the 30's.
Lissie brings something to the table that I've been waiting for a long time. Something new, something different but entirely perfect. Her high feminine notes are matched with masculine low notes which gives her a very unique and tuned voice.
On top of that she brings a bluegrass, rock and roll sound to the mix. A very old sound but introduced with a fresh set of lungs that really can belt it out. All in all she is a wonderful artist and has amazing sound, bringing it back to old school.
Lissie's "When I'm Alone" can be found on YouTube
I'm just glad we have a artist in this world that understands something must be done about these cookie cutter pop artists that release a new single every week only because they're sound isn't timeless but is for the moment. All props to Lissie and returning us to good music.
Cheers!
