Prita’s unique sound is ‘Hip-So-Fo’. It combines her love of Hip-Hop, Soul and Folk with the use of a live loop pedal and effortlessly layers funky urban harmonies, acoustic fingerpicking guitar and beat boxing. These contrasting dynamics add another element to her live solo show, which audiences have described as ‘captivating, inspiring and uplifting’. Prita’s songwriting is both storytelling and Jazzy, with her big bluesy soulful voice and a natural ear for harmony; she has been likened to KT Tunstall, Tracy Chapman and Norah Jones. Fans say her candid approach to song-writing and performing is like ‘watching open heart surgery’.

Prita’s success includes supports for Simply Red and Marcia Hines in front of 11,000 people, sold out shows with Ed Kowalczyk of ‘Live’ in Perth; John Paul Young ‘Love is in the air’; Ross ‘Eagle Rock’ Wilson; Mental as Anything; Thirsty Merc; Monique Brumby, and Paul Greene. She has played alongside ‘Gurumul Yunipingu’; Michelle Shocked; Lior; The Waifs and John Butler at Festivals around Australia and has joined the stage with Nathan Gaunt, Dave Mann, Toby, Tin Pan Orange and many others..

Her grassroots fan base is growing steadily over the past 4 years of independent touring, and festivals in both in Australia and Europe, with stints in the USA, and Thailand, Prita has also released 4 CD’s – ‘Prita EP’, ‘Bootleg Live’, her most recent EP ‘After the Storm’ recorded in Athens, and her debut full length album ‘New Life’. Festival appearances include Fairbridge Festival; Nannup Music Festival; Broome Blues and Roots; Port Fairy Festival; and Stony Live amongst others. Prita plans to re-locate to Europe this year after successfully signing for UK representation with ‘Connection Promotions’ in June 2011.

Her recent tour of the UK and Europe covering 5 countries and over 30 concerts has confirmed her popularity amongst audiences, Prita is one to watch, a star on the rise…

‘Prita also uses her voice, her greatest asset, together with a loop pedal and at times a stomp box to create a sort of one-man-band, or should I say woman, in order to create her own flavour of folk. It is this innovation that sets Prita apart from the other folk musicians..’ Soulshine live Review
