Inside Out is lucky to welcome back COUSIN ALICE!
“Think Tom Waits meets Peggy Lee & Marianne Faithfull” - Jools Holland
Cousin Alice’s unique singing and playing is gritty, heartfelt and sweet, delivering original songs ‘n’ standards with humour and a captivating personality. She seduces audiences with her smoky voice and antique banjo-ukulele playing. Holding the crowd in the palm of her hand, Cousin Alice is a magnetic performer. A talented singer/songwriter, she performs a collection of jazz standards, pop, nostalgia, blues and her own original work, including “Kukerichoo”, a number one hit in South Korea. Based in London but raised in New Zealand, of Barbadian/Welsh/English/Sephardi parentage, she draws on a rich infusion of Maori, Polynesian, Caribbean and Calypso culture.
Her albums and EPs All in a Day, Pour Me, Made in Rio, Live at Boisdales, Under Blue Skies and After Hours are available on Apple Music, Amazon and Spotify
