About Me
Funk, thump and groove (with the sophistication of jazz influences) three adjectives from musics lexicon capture Mz. Fishe, (Adrienne Fishe). Backed by her explosive band, The New Groove, Mz. Fishe presents a musical tour-de-force on stage. Raised in New York City, Mz. Fishe began singing in front of audiences when she was 7 years old and by the time she was 11, she knew she wanted to be a performer. Some early experiences during her musical journey have included being the 3rd runner up in Hal Jacksons Talented Teen Contest and a 3X winner in Star Search. In the late nineties, she began singing and performing with a popular Atlanta based band but as her spirit and aspirations grew and changed, she decided to leave the band and set out on her own. As a result, she was signed to the indie label "Groovement" in Atlanta (where India Arie and Donnie also got their start).
Mz. Fishe has shared the stage with Patti Labelle, James Brown, DeLaSoul, The Barkays, Mick Jagger, Diane Reeves, The Temptations, WAR, DeeLite, The Village People, TLC, MC Lyte and Billy Preston just to name a few. She has also performed in Europe, Japan, China, the Caribbean, Atlanta and New York. Mz. Fishe creates a unique sound that blends her essence of funk, jazz and an ultra-cool version of dance grooves all with a neo-soul sound. This singer and her band relate like the heart, mind and soul as one, creating an explosive energy that allows this Diva to cast her spell. The band weaves an ultra-hip, ultra-cool amalgam of sound sensibility. The smoothness of Mz. Fishe's voice laid over percussive textures in the music ignites a soul stirring energy that forces the audience to surrender to its hypnosis. Her debut release, "Mz. Fishe and The New Groove", (an acid jazz project rooted in the funk/jazz world), can be purchased online at CDBaby.com, iTunes, BestBuy.com, Dustygroove.com, Groovenation.net, Stonegrooverecordings.com, Billboardtalentnet.com and Simplysouldistribution.com and ALL OVER THE INTERNET!!!

Now, three other words apply.......... mesmerizing, mystifying and alluring!!
LISTEN OUT FOR: The Sound Of Solar Radio compilation, if anything, is even more diverse, musically. The whole show sets off nicely with a great dancer, that is a new one to me, entitled "You Lift Me Up" by Mz. Fishe. This is a great tune.
