"Once Upon a Dream..."

About Me

"There is no taste quite like Likrish (licorice)"
Since the candy has a unique flavor and Raichyl "Rai-Elle" Nelson's compositions are 'unique' then a thought came that perhaps the two should hold hands (?). Not that Rai-Elle is going to be pictured every time holding a twizzlers or a handful of jelly-beans, but that thought has indeed come to mind.
How to describe LIKRISH:
LIKRISH is unique. There really is NO flavor like LIKRISH because Rai-Elle blends the psychotic hazard of heavy guitars and electronic fantasy of Industrial with the mellow Trip-Hop vibe. To top that all off, Rai's vocals are hypnotic, while somewhat of an R & B style is attained. A truly 'original' band or act is definitely one that cannot be totally placed in a genre. This is believed to be what is said of LIKRISH and Rai-Elle's compositions.
MEMBERS:
RAICHYL ELIZABETH NELSON
Raichyl "Rai-Elle" Nelson started an act called "KarYoke" in 2004 with the release of 'The DiZaster EP." Designed as nothing more than a "Senior project" she worked besider her father, Chris Nelson of Fishkill to record, produce and polish the 4-track EP that would launch her magnificent career.
Rai-Elle has been singing for ages and has been writing for a cumulative total of 16 years thus far. Her first song, "No Hope" was written while she was playing a Pianosaurus (remember those?) back in San Bernadino, CA. Rai is a self-acclaimed 'milatary-brat', born in Landstuhl, Germany in 1986 and has traveled all over the world.
"I'm not done traveling." says Rai-Elle. "My life is just beginning and there is still so much more to see!" Some of her future destinations include Tokyo, Japan/Sydney, Austraillia/and going back to Milan, Italy. "I hope my music is just as successful in the future as it has been in the past" she says. Rai-Elle has been featured on stations in England, Argentina and 8 United States. That is only the beginning...
