New Interview: Lisa Shaw 
Lisa has been a staple on the electronica scene for years. She was
the voice of the Naked Music label and the enigma behind some of the
most popular songs that burn up dance clubs throughout the world.
Nu-Soul had the opportunity to catch up with the woman behind one of
the most beautiful voices on the planet and talk to her about her new
album Free, why Sade has the perfect career and why she is happy to be under the radar.

Event Recap: Nu-Soul in San Francisco

|
Nu-Soul bridges the gap between the world of R&B/soul and the underground vibes of electronica, the common factor being a grounding in funk, soul and urban lifestyle. This is a place where the sounds of neo-soul, drum and bass, deep house and breakbeat are a part of the same family. Through fascinating articles, engaging interviews, and the latest reviews, Nu-Soul hopes to open minds to the incredible array of soul influenced music available today.
Sincerely,
