ALICIA is a fresh and diverse artist whose music reimagines a blend of genres such as R&B, Jazz, Pop, and Indie. “I don’t want to be put in a box and labeled as “just another artist,” I want to embrace the sounds that stand out to me and create music that feels colorful. Music is art and art is colorful. Almost anyone can identify with colors and the feeling you get from them, like the warmth of a red rose or the gloom of a cloudy day. Just like colors, every genre has a unique personality and with it, the power to make us laugh, cry, think, and feel. If you can make people feel and fall in love with the colors of the music around us, I think you’ve mastered a different expression of that art,” she said.
Growing up in a creative and artistic family of eight, ALICIA discovered her passion for music at age three and fell in love with piano. But it wasn’t until thirteen that she began penning poems and songs. As a songwriter, she communicates stories from her life experiences while leaving room for the listener to interpret through their own lens, making her songs feel even more personal and relatable. “Yes, I'm writing my story,” she said, “but I'm also leaving space for the listener within the chapter. If they can relate to what I’m singing, then it’s personal to them which makes these songs even more special and valuable. We all have a unique story and I want to take people on an intimate journey with the music as they listen and reflect on the story within themselves.”
