WHO: ALEXANDRA & THE STARLIGHT BAND, whose musical style has been described as an uncompromising and modernized spin on American Music. Starlight is
a complete powerhouse vocalist and entertainer, whose raspy but soulful
vocal style and emotional delivery, has been critically comparedto
superstars such as Tina Turner and Janis Joplin. Starlight has been covered by national press and appeared on the #1 rated morning show in Los Angeles, Good Day LA. She also appears in the new Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary trailer alongside Elton John, Iggy Pop, The Black Keys and Perry Farrell, that’s currently being shown before concerts and in theaters. Alexandra recently performed at the New York Stock Exchange where she rang Closing Bell alongside Ivanka Trump.
Her self-titled, debut recording was-funded 100% by Kickstarter,
featuring a never-before-made combination of clear vinyl/rainbow
glitter, each hand numbered and custom made. The release has received an
overwhelmingly positive response on the Kickstarter, causing the limited-edition 7” to nearly sell out months before its release.
“Plenty of attitude… channeled into hooky, funky neo-soul, driven by her powerful vocals that are somewhere in-between Tina Turner and Amy Winehouse.” –The Metro
“
Long-locked, lusty-voiced Alexandra Starlight has been around a long
time for a sweet young thang, and she’s been honing her chops....she and
Zachary James have put together the kind of powerhouse band that you’d
think would be impossible in this day and age." - L.A. RECORD
WHAT: ALEXANDRA & THE STARLIGHT BAND will be performing at Yucca Tap Room, with Zachary James And The All Seeing Eyes, as a musical pit stop on their route to SXSW
