Let ‘Em Eat Cake

Laydee Spencer Music, Inc.

In the badass, breathy vein of Lana Del Ray, singer-songwriter Alexz Johnson has created a kind of dangerous femme fatale sound on her new record Let ‘Em Eat Cake. There’s a whole lot of swagger from the get-go, with the finger snapping of “Cologne,” and the isolated guitar melody of the title track, “Let ‘Em Eat Cake.” Johnson sings like a sultry songstress, and you half expect her to be lying atop a piano in a smoky lounge, except she defies that expectation. Instead, she channels her dramatic chanteuse abilities into power pop ballads and borderline dance pop. Cake is cheeky, sexy and ethereal all at once, and you’ll probably find it catchy as hell, whether it’s your cup o’ tea or not.

Catch Alexz Johnson at Stubb’s BBQ November 29th!
