Search - Alyse Black :: Too Much & Too Lovely

With a crimson silk voice set to deceptively lovely pop tunes, Alyse Black embodies the red-headed siren singer-songwriter. Drawing on a wide variety of influences, from Bjork to Billie Holiday, from Tom Waits to Tori Amos, from Piaf to Portishead, Alyse creates a delicate world of bright colors and lilting pleasure ' creating a 'hazy rose-hued state of mind where sensuality is key and reality is just a dirty word.' - Brittany Brown Reviews - Her first album, Too Much & Too Lovely won 1st place in Billboard s Annual World Song Contest in Jazz among many other awards. While Alyse's songwriting could be likened to the playful jazziness of Regina Spektor, Alyse's voice has been described as a cross between the voices of Tori Amos and Norah Jones. Because Alyse's major influences run the gamut from Billie Holiday to Tom Waits, her writing is at once quirky and sultry.
