Lisa Moorish Live at the Macbeth

May 28 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Striking out in the early 1990s, vocalist Moorish carved out a solid pop-dance music career robustly supported by the likes of George Michael, featured on recordings by Oasis and Ash later on in the decade and formed punk band Kill City with guitarist Pete Jones/Welsh Pete in the early 00s, putting out cult-classics ‘White Boy Brown Girl’, ‘Just Like Bruce Lee’, ‘Tis Pity She’s A Whore’, performing a raft of incendiary gigs, Libertines support slots and releasing on Alan McGee’s much lauded Poptones label.’

‘Sylvia’ has the singer/songwriter returning to her house anthem roots, setting her soulful vocals to an electropop floorfiller of Ladytron, Miss Kittin or The Knife ilk. The bass-heavy, sparkling rhythms are spiked with words raking through the poet’s fame and fraught marriage, applauding her stellar, esoteric talent and remarking on Moorish’s own feeling of kinship with the writer, asking of the ill-fated authoress: “Sylvia, where do I end and you begin?”
