Lisabel is a singer songwriter based in London. She has been singing and performing from a young age, studying vocals and piano before moving to London to further her musical studies. She obtained a music degree in performance, graduating from BIMM London in 2016. Since her relocation to London, Lisabel had a chance to play in venues such as The Half Moon, Pizza Express Jazz Club, O2 Academy Islington, 606 Jazz Club, The Workshop & Roadtrip, Novikov Lounge, Jak’s Chelsea and The Spice of Life. Her current ensemble is comprised of Nikola Kovačević: Rhodes, Synth Bass; Stefanos Tsourelis: Electric Guitar and Adam Texeira: Drums. Her first single “Green Jade,” was met with high praise, now in 2019 her latest single “Stars Dance” is a contemporary jazz and soul influenced track inspired by Lisabel’s appreciation for contemporary jazz singer Gretchen Parlato who has inspired her to experiment with rhythm and voice.
Positives:
Lisabel’s use of lyrics as well as jazz syllables is an example of her broad interest in many music genres, these elements are in full blossom on her new single “Stars Dance.”
Bottom Line:
Lisabel’s songwriting is personal and intimate, often illustrating personal stories about her life, her relationships, the power of nature and the social environment around her. “Stars Dance,” is a delightfully rhythmic tune that infuses jazz and soul elements and is firmly pinned by strong song-crafting. Her vocal quality is immersed in warmth and offers a focused tonality. Her articulation of the melody is filled with precision and the hypnotizing rhythmic pulse of the tune, entrances the listener. Lisabel’s use of lyrics as well as jazz syllables is an example of her broad interest in many music genres which will all be present in her upcoming debut album, out later in 2019. That’s the short of it!
