Prita and the Perfect Strangers
www.myspace.com/pritagrealy

As a solo artist Prita layers vocal harmonies live with her loop pedal, accompanied by hand percussion beats and acoustic guitar. Her jazzy, bluesy voice, over simplistic acoustic guitar riffs and beats creates a sometimes folk bordering on soul, with a sound blending Tracy Chapman, Norah Jones and Amy Winehouse. Her latest project has been forming the band ‘Prita and the Perfect Strangers’ with jazzy trumpet, funky bass lines, and grooving drum beats, acoustic guitar and melodic vocals, creating a spacious, melodic, jazzy outfit. Expect to be entertained with a joyous explosion of music.

2009 was a big year in which Prita Supported Ed Kowalczyk of ‘Live’ at the Octagon theatre, toured northwest WA with Toby on the Resurrecting the Roots tour, opened for Carus, Paul Greene and Nathan Gaunt in Fremantle, played at Nannup Music Festival, debuted solo tour in Melbourne playing 7 venues in 9 days, supporting Tin Pan Orange and Mosaic. She launched her second EP Bootleg Live, and debuted solo tour of Europe playing in Athens, Berlin, Tartu, Copenhagen, Milton Keynes, Manchester, with a mix of house concerts, bars, and pubs. 2010 is set to be even bigger and better with both Nannup and Fairbridge festival inviting Prita to play, the launch of her debut album ‘New Life’ and plans for touring around Australia. She most recently supported John Paul Young and Ross Wilson and the Urban Legends live on their WA tours.
 
Prita will be making a special return appearance after touring all of May and a very special CD launch at The Ellington earlier in the year.
