Music Recommendation: Lissie

Elisabeth Maurus or "Lissie" is an American folk artist from Rock Island, Illinois. Her Debut Album "Catchin a Tiger" was released June 21st, 2010 and has already received unbelieveable attention. She was voted by Paste Magazine as the #1 best solo artist of 2010. She already has three singles including "Cuckoo", "In Sleep" as we as "When I'm Alone". In fact, iTunes UK voted "When I'm Alone" as the best song of 2010 and she has continued to turn pop covers such as "Bad Romance" and "Pursuit of Happiness".

Lissie is an artist to watch for sure. She makes singing look so effortless and isn't just a one hit wonder. I look forward to see her grow as an artist and use her musical talents (not just her voice but her guitar playing) in different ways. If you liked her first video check out "Everywhere I Go" or "Making Pies".
