艺人介绍

莉兹莱特(Lizz Wright)以沙哑迷濛、温暖厚实的嗓音,展现了超龄的歌唱才华。这一切要归功於她自受牧师父亲与教会琴师母亲的音乐薰陶。 2003年以首张专辑《盐》(Salt)被时人杂誌誉为该年度『最有前途的新声音』,莉兹莱特风格独具口味独特富含灵魂节奏蓝调的嗓音,为她铺陈未来光明坦途,2005年,环球唱片看準了她过去在詮释爵士乐的实力,将她从通俗乐路线阵营的Universal厂牌,转换至隶属Verve主以提拔当代爵士新秀的副厂Verve Forecast厂牌旗下发行最新专辑《美梦人生》(Dreaming Wide Awake),让爵士乐迷们也能大饱耳福。

Vocalist Lizz Wright delivers a sultry R&B performance that's divinely layered in gospel and jazz, and keenly similar to the work of Oleta Adams and Jill Scott. Wright was born in early 1980 in the Georgia town of Hahira, and her musical tastes blossomed early on. Her father served as the pianist and musical director at the local church, and he encouraged his daughter to absorb the soulful dispositions of classic hymns. Eventually, blues and jazz were added to Wright's musical plate, and by high school she was earning awards in countless choir competitions. Wright was coming into her warm, smooth singing voice, so her decision to attend Georgia State in Atlanta to study voice at a professional level wasn't surprising. Atlanta became her home and her voice became her solace. In 2000, Wright joined the vocal quartet In the Spirit. The group was quickly hailed as the best jazz group in the city, motivating Wright to hone her craft all the more. Two years later, Verve inked Wright a deal. Her impressive singing style was captured on her debut, Salt, the following spring. Dreaming Wide Awake followed in June 2005. After making a guest appearance on the Toots Thielmans album One More for the Road in 2006, Wright released her third album, The Orchard, in 2008.
