In The Spotlight

Jennah Bell – “Can’t Be Too Careful”

With her roots planted firmly in the Bay Area of California, this unorthodox singer and songwriter grew up surrounded by Oakland soul. However, she engineered her own colorful fusion of folk, soul, R&B and Bluegrass. She furthered her musical vision at the Berklee College Of Music and was mentored by Paul Simon. After a move to New York, she released her debut EP “Early Bird” in 2011.

With a mischievous beat pulsating in the veins of the rebellious electric guitars, her new single merges vintage Rhythm & Blues with a distinctly modern vibe. Taken from her album “Anchors & Elephants”, she uses her vocal palette to splash some 60s soul shades, New Orleans Blues hues and a touch of Bluegrass tints onto a melodic canvas and creates a recalcitrant pastiche of auditory art.

Licia Chery – “Peace Of Mind”

Born in Switzerland, this passionate singer and songwriter learned to play piano aged 6 and discovered soul music from her heroes Otis Redding, Billie Holiday and Etta James a few years later. She’s been composing, writing and performing live ever since. She released her debut album “Blue Your Mind” in 2011 and was a finalist for the Swiss entry to the Eurovision Songcontest in 2015.

Harken back to the golden age of soul, this fresh taste of her upcoming EP, expected on May 3rd, is a 60s-soaked tribute to the Motown sounds of The Supremes and Aretha Franklin. With an energetic rhythm, harmonious backing vocals and a vintage-dipped instrumentation blending classic soul with a touch of gospel, this is a virulent vessel for her sweet, compelling vocals to tease your eardrums.
