Best known as former lead singer of all-girl Icelandic rock band Bellatrix, Elíza Newman her debut solo album ‘Empire Fall’ .
‘Empire Fall’ written and arranged by Elíza was released in Britain in November 2007 to critical acclaim followed by a double A-side single in March 2008.
Eliza has been following up the album with sell out shows in London and appearances at the Iceland Airwaves festival as well as and supporting bands such as The Duke Spirit.
Elíza was just a teen when she formed the all-girl punk rock outfit Bellatrix / Kolrassa Krókríðandi. They went on to release four albums on Bjork’s Bad Taste label and in the process earned the tag of hottest female band to come out of Iceland; as well as signing to Fierce Panda for the release of their fourth album , and a co-headlining UK tour with Coldplay. Kerrang! described Elíza as being a ‘spectacular vocal talent!’, while NME praised her as a ‘exhilarating, unhinged, untutored rough pop Diamond’. The media focus was unrelenting, and after headlining the Carling Stage at the Reading Festival 2000, Elíza took time out to further her musical armoury and embark on an intense course of study in operatic arts in London. Eventually finding herself wanting to connect both worlds and ‘create something epic’ Elíza formed her third band – Skandinavia. Tagged by many as being reminiscent of The Breeders and early Flaming Lips, Skandinavia picked up where Bellatrix had left off, receiving major critical acclaim.
With Empire Fall Elíza is back to weave us in to her inner world again , full of raw beauty and secret landscapes .
