The first thing you'll notice about Alice Di Micele is her voice. With a five-octave range that is intense, sensual, rich and soulful, she has been known to turn a noisy bar silent within a few notes. Her warm presence and humor disarm and create a rare intimacy between audience and performer. Whether singing a jazzy-folk number, belting a sassy blues, or rocking out on one of her trademark rhythmic earthy grooves, Alice is a vocalist who moves people. A kick-ass guitarist as well, whether playing solo or with a band her acoustic guitar conjures percussive poly-rhythms, bass lines, and melodies that perfectly frame her vocals.

After a five year sabbatical spent whitewater kayaking and raft guiding in Oregon, Alice returns with a 2007 album steeped in her love for life in the natural world, featuring her vocals and guitar front and center. The artist's dedication to changing the world through music shines through. Her song Promise of the Sun was written after the murders of Matthew Shepard and forest activist David Gypsy Chain.

'Alice's music has the great combination of earthiness and groove that keeps it funky from the inside out. She's for real.' (Bonnie Raitt)
