Elizabeth Willis Unveils Self-Titled Album

Grew up as a trained violinist and pianist, a dedicated singer/songwriter, a talented producer and composer, and the President of Little Blackbird Records, Elizabeth Willis have strong track records in the music industry and a thick profile for a successful career as a musician.

Armed with her immense skill and the knowledge she'd gained, Willis set out writing and recording what would eventually become her self-titled debut album. The 11-song disc is a powerfully emotional and musically lush outing filled with, as you might guess, elegant piano and strings underscoring her deeply moving vocals. Willis' songs have been compared to legends like Nina Simone, Joan Armatrading, Tracy Chapman and Antony & the Johnsons for both their emotional depth and musical warmth.

"I was at first ambivalent about releasing the album," she says. "But at the same time it was very cathartic. It's OK that it's very personal, because other people can identify with my experience."
