Alot of these gals have similar voices since Joplin, but I always hear more Melanie. But it has nothing to do with any of these singers being new and current...this was always happening in the 70's and 80's as well.

Stevie Nicks and Edie Brickell are two examples off the top of my head with this type of style.

Lissie just released this EP which I bought yesterday that has all the covers I highlighted in my OP as well as two others:

Covered Up With Flowers

Pursuit of Happiness (Kid Cudi cover)

Bad Romance (Lady Gaga cover)

Games People Play (Joe South Cover)

Nothing Else Matters (Metallica cover)

The Ship Song (Nick Cave Cover)


I was already a fan of the prior covers (Kid Cudi, Metallica, Lady Gaga) but the two new ones are equally great! I love the Nick Cave cover! Checking out the original now! :grinthumb

Her covers EP is cool, but I do prefer her own material.

I think "Oh Mississippi" is probably her best vocal performance. Every time the track comes up, I have to click repeat a couple of times.

Very good pick man! :grinthumb My favorite track is still Record Collector from that album but the last track definitely slows it down and shows her range! :grinthumb

Lissie will release her new album, "My Wild West", on Feb. 12.

Track Listing:

My Wild West Overture
Hollywood
Wild West
Hero
Sun Keeps Risin’
Don’t You Give Up On Me
Stay
Daughters
Together Or Apart
Shroud
Go For A Walk
Ojai

Here's a brand new track:



The new track is awesome! It has a bit of a Lana Del Rey vibe. I'm really excited about the new album and maybe I'm getting ahead of myself, but I would be surprised if it does not end up on my list of favourite albums in. 2016.

I've heard multiple songs off of it and of course I'll be getting it. Nothing I've heard has me overly excited if I'm honest though. Hope to be proven wrong. :)
