Day 16: Lizabett Russo | #HITSBC15

Hey guys!

So far we've seen 15 spot on performance and I think it's safe to say that this birthday party is anything but a let down. As chaotic as it is to organise it, I've been enjoying every minute of it so far. And I hope it's not any different for you.

What is the Birthday Countdown though? Throughout the entire month of February, one artist/one band a day is going to wish house in the sand a happy birthday and then perform a song exclusively for us.

Lizabett Russo is a singer/songwriter from Aberdeen, Scotland. She mixes various genres to her very own sound but could be described as an acoustic/folk-rock artist.

With a voice that can tell stories just by its expressive sound and even more detailed writing skills, Liz is blessed with a lot talent.

So far Lizabett released an EP called "The Traveller's Song", a fantastic three track recording mostly showcasing her acoustic/folk sound.
On her most recent single "Forgiven" the singer/songwriter lets out her folk-rock side in such fantastic way.


To wish us a happy birthday Lizabett performed "Darling, I'm Not Your Doll". I suggest you lean back and enjoy this splendid performance.



Thank you Lizabett for being an absolute pleasure to work with for the second year now. Another brilliant performance we're very happy to share.

Please go ahead and share this performance with your friends by using the hashtag #HITSBC15.

Songs Of The Day: 'Forgiven', 'Lucky One' and 'Lifeline'

Hey guys,

I'm sure pretty much every single one of you has been asked this one question which sounds oh so simple: what is your favourite song?

To be completely honest with you - there's no question I hate like that one.

Whenever somebody asks me "so Vanessa, what is your favourite song?" all I want to do is run in circles and jump in anger.

Why?

Because I never could and probably never will be able to just pick one damn song. 

And I'll always be paranoid about forgetting some brilliant song.

That's why I am not made for "Song Of The Day" features.

But - this is my blog so I can change things up.

And that's why I decided to simply add an "s" and make this the "SongS Of The Day" section.

Simple but affective.
