Description

Alice Russell has gained an enviable reputation as one of the hottest singers in the UK right now. Her recent tracks with the Quantic and Quantic Soul Orchestra projects have proved to elevate her profile further. Alice's lavishly soulful voice is both timeless and up to the minute modern. Whether live or on record, she always performs with her trademark self assurance and sass. Her style is a predominantly bluesy, soul lament but encompasses everything from funk to gospel to jazz and beyond. Her performances have that rarest of qualities; the ability to captivate the audience and command its attention, creating music that tugs at the emotions and raises hairs on the back of the neck. You really can't fake what Miss. Russell's got! Citing such golden voices as Minnie Ripperton, Eva Cassidy, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin aswell as Jill Scott as her primary influences, Alice is no stranger to taking centre stage. An accomplished chanteuse , Alice's sensual, sublime voice has seen her work on many different projects in a number of capacities. 'Under the Munka Moon' is a compilation of all her collaborative projects, including tracks written with Bah Sambah, Kushti, Nature Boy and Quantic for Tru Thoughts Recordings. The unique and captivating flavour that Alice's distinctive voice brings to Tru Thoughts is evident on her collaborations with both Quantic and Quantic Soul Orchestra. Having been the principal vocalist on such classics as 'Sweet Calling' and 'Search The Heavens' both on Quantic's 'Apricot Morning' Album, and more recently on Quantic's Soul Orchestra's debut funk bomb LP 'Stampede' and "Mishaps Happening. And of course her anthemic cover of 4Hero's gem 'Hold It Down' is now a classic, which further adds ignition to an album that has been described by the Independent as 'authentic funk with a modern twist'.
