Alice Russell tours Australia

New queen of soul, Alice Russell, is set to hit Australian shores. Not literally, because otherwise she'd find it hard to perform. Appearing at the Byron Bay Blues & Roots Festival, and solo shows in Sydney at The Forum on Friday April 13.

Effortlessly chilled grooves coupled with a voice that sounds like it was plucked from the deep South in the '50s is Alice's calling card. Teamed with producer TM Juke, the sultry output doesn't invite, but forces you to get on that dance floor.

Listen:
Alice Russell - Hard Times
TM Juke - Playground Games (feat. Alice Russell)

Released on Tru Thoughts. Buy.
