"Alice has an excellent ear, powerful projection, great intonation, wonderful stage presence. SUPERB! SPLENDID!!" Carleen Anderson
With the music industry in an uncertain and ever changing climate, commercial music is crying out for an artist blessed with a little honesty; able to imbue music with real, raw emotion and sincerity. In short, an artist unafraid of the personal touch.
Alice Shaw is that artist.
Hailing originally from Bristol, Alice relocated to Brighton in 2002. Along with backing vocalists Amy Tinsley and Jo Wallace, Alice headed boldly out into the buzzing live circuit with a piano led collection of classy songs, quickly becoming a firm favourite among the town’s more discerning gig-goers.
In early 2007 Alice signed a global publishing deal with Sony/ATV Music who recognised her songwriting talent immediately and funded the recording of her debut album ‘Reasons I Can’t Speak’, which was completed in London's 2khz Studios with renowned producer Ian Grimble. ‘Reason I Can’t Speak,’ is 11 passionate anthems of love & loss, rejection & personal awakening; bold musical arrangements perfectly compliment Alice’s soaring vocals and heartfelt lyrics. The overall result is a cohesive work of striking originality and real beauty.
As well as her solo music Alice also plays and sings with singer songwriters such as Emily Baker, Dorie Jackson, Amy Tinsley and Abbo, and enjoys on going studio and television session work.
"In a time when money is being thrown at the mediocre, it's great to find someone so young, gifted and broke! That's where true talent is born." Ian Grimble
