Lisa Lindley-Jones' voice is clean, childlike. It's also hugely sexy, fizzing with the effervescence of her musical adventures, smoothened by a steely confidence. This lady in red mutates on stage, swaying then stamping to live tracks that sound better than the scissoring guitar of 'Firetime' from forthcoming album 'Selfhood' - said to mark the journeyto find her own musical identity. Her live set shows her in so many guises, her band so talented they follow her red signalling without fail, that we'd hate to see her stabilising something she's not. Long live the multi-layered Lisa. - The Fly
On paper, this is possibly the most unusaual remidelling of the lot. Talking Heads were the influential art rockers with razor-sharp riffs and jerking basslines. Lisa Lindley-Jones, meanwhile, is a singer 'creamy cigarette vocals'. The original manic energy is removed and Talking Heads' fraught attack of guitars, bass and drums are simmered down to a simple vocal, acoustic guitars and wide-open spaces. - Q MAGAZINE

Bio
Lisa Lindley-Jones steps out from the wings with her enchanting 'White Shadow' EP Amazingly and perfectly, each song on the EP captures a deep sadness with an even greater optimism. Tripping between Brighton and London and also her native Stockholm, Lisa saw something bigger than any of the cooler than cool scenes she dipped into. This talented musician and lyricist's music has a fragility and power conveyed through both her vocal style and the songs' framework, managing to be complex without pretence.
Sometimes performing bijou intimate sets, other times with the thunderous power of a full Rock n Roll band, guarding her like a group of non-identities....
Lisa has also recently lent her voice to King Creosotes critically acclaimed Album Bombshell and British Sea Powers top ten album Do You Like Rock Music? She is now in the process of putting the final touches to her LP Selfhood(tbc). The White Shadow EP was mixed by Tim Holmes from Death In Vegas and a beautifully charged music film accompanies the track Step Back. It was directed by the maverick WIZ, who has previously directed for Arctic Monkeys, Manic Street Preachers and Dizzee Rascall amongst others.
