Lissie

Check out this upcoming singer/songwriter Lissie Maurus, who simply refers to herself as Lissie on stage.  Currently living in Ojai, CA, Lissie lives in a bungalow with her dog and spends her days writing songs.  She got off the ground doing covers of some popular songs such as "Bad Romance" and "Pursuit of Happiness", but her original work shows off her irresistible whiskey-like voice, her lyrics that constantly promote the strive for independence, and her fearlessness to approach the music industry as she is; no hiding behind outrageous makeup or wardrobes as many others do.  Shes playing in at a nightclub in NY at the end of the month, and I'm hoping I can check her out live!
