The Philadelphia Weekly described Betsy Spivak's "bellysweet": "her voice has the unmistakable quality of a wicked sense of humor, tucked underneath her tongue like a contraband wad of gum..."
Bio / Background
Betsy Spivak is a gypsy of sorts. Currently based in Philadelphia, PA. Though everything she owns is in a storage locker in Los Angeles.
A native of Philadelphia PA., she always has a piano, a guitar and a bold yet entrancing vocal style.
Her poignant yet humorous songwriting reflects the contrasting influences of her years on the East and West coasts.
Raised back and forth between the two, she sings of the lives strung somewhere in the balance, with an unusual insight into the dynamic personalities she's met along the way.
Though classically trained, her style reflects an array of eclectic influences including Nina Simone, Nick Drake, Vincent Persichetti and Tom Waits.
Betsy's debut album, "bellysweet", takes its title from Kerouac's The Subterraneans.
Defined as the ability to excite the libido, "bellysweet" is a fusion of seven songs ranging both in instrumentation and emotion.
