Alice has earned an enviable reputation as one of the hottest singers in the UK - her lavishly soulful voice is capable of a bluesy lament or a bouncing broken beat boogie, always featuring her trademark self assurance and sass.
"Alice Russell has an amazing voice! She should be more famous than Joss Stone."
- Groove Armada
Alice Russell has earned an enviable reputation as one of the hottest singers in the UK, right now. Her tracks with The Quantic Soul Orchestra, her storming cover of White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army" with Nostalgia 77, beautiful downbeat work with TM Juke and Massive Attack rumours proving she's on the brink of breaking through.
'My Favourite Letters' is Alice's second solo album, following her debut 'Under The Munka Moon' and features the beautifully crafted production work of TM Juke on tracks like the spaghetti-western flavoured 'Humankind'.
Alice's lavishly soulful voice is capable of a bluesy lament or a bouncing broken beat boogie, always featuring her trademark self assurance and sass. Her performances have that rarest of qualities - the ability to captivate the listener and command attention, creating music that tugs at the emotions and raises hairs on the back of the neck.
A remarkable talent backed by a top notch producer and beatmaker has resulted in an incredible album of tough beats, broken soul and more of that laidback hip hop bounce. Unique, captivating and booty-shaking!
"Alice Russell has one of the great soul voices of today."
