Only 22 years old, Alicia is a rare talent with an amazing command of the piano, her voice, and the art of songwriting. Her piano chops have been steeped in classical and jazz, while her songwriting reflects strong pop influences. She is just as likely to be inspired by Miles Davis and John Coltrane as she is by the Smashing Pumpkins. It is Alicia's ability to move deftly between pop melodies and jazz improvisation that has fans singing her praise. In this exciting age of genre-bending music, Alicia is one rapidly emerging starlet that should not be missed.
