Stephanie Nilles
I’ve been a member of TheSixtyOne.com only for about 3 1/2 months under several different artist users and I have found many, many artists that really impress me that I would not have found had I not searched through the wonderful site. For the uninitiated, TheSixtyOne is a user controlled site that is in essence, Digg for music, but with an achievement and point basis. Users ‘bump’ songs that they like and they make the front page if they receive enough bumps.
Anyway, most recently I found the singer Stephanie Nilles. Now, generally her upbeat, jazzy music is not something I would not usually get into, however, I was absolutely hooked after hearing her wonderful witty lyrics and jumpy jazz piano (note: She is an INCREDIBLE jazz pianist); timed with her high pitched, incredibly ranged voice, makes for a really fun listening experience.
Her lyrics are real, not cliche in any sort of way and incredibly sincere. This all combines into one of my favorite new(found) artists so far this year. If you are in New York City (or anywhere in the Northeast or hell, the south pole) check out her MySpace.
Favorite Songs:
“Jump Monk/A Constellation of Endeavors”
“Kool Aid Stand”
