FEATURE ARTIST
This week our feature artist is Alicia Glenn. Ranging from strong and soulful to soothing and sentimental, Alicia’s voice puts the audience under her spell. With her rhythmic piano playing and lyrics that are straight from the heart, you’ll feel like you’ve been there too. After years of classical and operatic training, Alicia became one half of an electronica duo called nullStatic, singing Bjork, Radiohead and Portishead covers, as well as some creative original tunes. Following two years of performing and recording in Kingston ON, it was time for Alicia to branch out to a new venture of her own. Alicia’s solo material echoes the earlier influences of her life, such as Sarah McLachlan, Chantal Kreviazuk and Faith Evans, and includes touches of Motown ’60s soul. Alicia has opened for Martina Sorbara and Madison Violet, and has performed at venues across Toronto with her former band. She has been in Edmonton since 2006, where she has quickly become a part of the rich music scene, and has played solo shows at The Blue Chair Cafe, Hulbert’s, Bogani Cafe, and the Wunderbar among others. In February 2008 Alicia teamed up with Edmonton’s own “Light Travels”. They have since been gracing the stages at spots like The Haven Social Club, Urban Lounge, The Pawn Shop, Brixx Grill and The Starlite Room, to name a few.
Alicia & Light Travels have an upcoming show at the Starlite Room on December 18th, 2010.
