Alien

Liz Solo’s voice is equal parts bitch-goddess rage and girlish fragility, and her songs are of loss, forgiveness, frustration, scars, bruises, love, and the universe. Instrumentation on alien ranges from sweet, delicate layering to thick electric rawk. The depths of downtown St. John’s and the heights of outer space meet here.
-Andreae Prozesky
