Alice Di Micele performing on acoustic guitar.
Alice Di Micele is an Oregon Songwriter whose Groove Folk & Acoustic Soul is water infused and reflects the spirit of the Pacific Northwest. Alice is passionate about the power of music to move people. Alice recently finished a tour that included opening for JJ Cale and playing in a trio with Bobby Vega (bassist for Steve Kimock, Sly and the Family Stone, Etta James and others) and Jeff Pevar (The ‘P’ in CPR that includes David Crosby and David’s son John Raymond). Joining her on Lopez Island is David Gelfand on bass who lends his resonant bass lines and high energy funk to Alice’s deep groove.
The first thing you’ll notice about Alice Di Micele is her voice. With a five-octave range that is intense, sensual, rich and soulful, Di Micele has been known to turn a noisy bar silent within a few notes. Her warm presence and humor disarm and create a rare intimacy between audience and performer. Whether singing a jazzy-folk number, belting out sassy blues, or rocking away on one of her trademark rhythmic earthy grooves, Alice is a vocalist that moves people. A great guitarist as well, whether playing solo or with a band her acoustic guitar conjures percussive poly-rhythms, bass lines, and melodies that perfectly frame her vocals.
