Elle Varner... the new Alicia Keys?

This post is unlike any other I have made on this site, but Elle Varner needs to be more famous than she is.  This girl's voice is incredible on her debut album "Conversational Lush", but I think she is even better live.  Her voice has this raspy quality to it that almost reminds me of Alicia Keys.  I think some of that vocal effect is lost on her album to be honest, so these videos are examples of her performing live.  Check her out and if you love her voice as much as I do make sure to support Elle Varner on iTunes. (also check out her album in the link above)

This next one is the first thing I ever heard her sing.  SOO good.

Shout out to Gaelen LeMelle-Brown for introducing me to Elle
