Lijie

Anyone who knows me knows I'm a pushover for a good voice. Well I found another one that is just incredible. Her name is Lijie and her voice is strong and sultry with just a tinge of smoke. It's tempting to compare her to Rachael Yamagata but Lijie is another one by which you'll later compare others because she's got a sound all her own.

Her music has a style and beat that draws from contemporary pop rock but is thankfully pushed to a more personal place without losing it's beat. She is a songwriter beyond her years in expression and production.

I hear everything from Fleetwood Mac to the Pretenders to Laura Branigan in her. And all of it fresh.
