Glasswerk presents Prita
About this Event
Once you experience Prita’s exceptional live loop show, you’ll be hooked by her soulful rhythmic songs and captivated by her stunning vocal performance. It’s easy to see why ‘European audiences are sitting up and taking notice of this captivating musician from Fremantle.’ Australian Times, UK
After supporting Simply Red & Marcia Hines on their last ever tour in Australia, Prita re-located to Europe in November 2011, settling in Berlin, and has been busy touring Europe and the UK ever since, releasing her 6th independent CD, ‘Live in Düsseldorf’, gaining airplay on radio stations, and reviews in the press internationally.
Prita’s unique sound is ‘Hip-Soul-Folk’. It combines her love of Hip-Hop, Soul and Folk with the use of a live loop pedal, she effortlessly layers funky urban harmonies, acoustic fingerpicking guitar and beat boxing. Prita’s songwriting is both storytelling and Jazzy, with her big bluesy soulful voice and a natural ear for harmony; she has been likened to KT Tunstall, Tracy Chapman and Norah Jones. Fans say her candid approach to song writing and performing is like ‘watching open heart surgery’.
