Through the years (sounds like I’m really old=) I´ve been singing opera, musical, jazz, soul, pop, electro, blues, rock and even heavy-metal... The Miss Li music has become a combination of all those genres. I put a little bit of this and a little bit of that to make it sound like one. I haven´t got any rules that I want to follow or pattern witch I want fit into.. and to be honest, I don´t care what I sounds like as long as it´s fun! And the day it aint fun making music I´ll quit. I just want to put a smile on people’s faces and hopefully give you guys a little inspiration to live and to do creative things in you lifes! ............. well..I´ve got to stop this grown up talk now and just let you experience my music!
