BETA Records - Your music matters!

"Throw your words at me, I%u2019ll have my way with them," mocks the young and sharp-tongued singer, guitarist and songwriter, Alexx Calise.

Cleverly blending hard rock, urban-edged pop, and electronica with biting social commentary, Calise%u2019s music hits you hard like a steel fist. However, she%u2019s unapologetic, and she%u2019s got enough fight left to last a lifetime.

Delivering a sound that is both fresh and uniquely her own, Calise combines crunchy guitars and cutting-edge production with an instantly identifiable vocal that is hauntingly beautiful and completely raw all at once.

Calise grew up in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she spent her childhood mostly alone or in the pages of a notebook, finding comfort only in her parents%u2019 vast record collection, which included everything from Mozart to Led Zeppelin. At 11, she picked up the guitar to emulate her father, also a talented musician, and began fusing the melodies she heard in her head with her own poetry and recitations.

Now living in Los Angeles, California and continuing along the same path, Calise is endorsed by over 13 music gear/clothing manufacturers, she has appeared in several national TV commercials (Almay, Cherry 7Up, Cover Girl) and she has been featured and/or interviewed in Blender magazine, Guitar World, and the how-to/method book, "How to Succeed as a Female Musician" alongside such notable musicians as Lisa Loeb and The Donnas. Her music is in heavy rotation on MTV/VH1 Networks, and her single, "Pull It (Bullet)" is one of the highest charting songs in AUS/NZ.

Currently, Calise is creating the follow-up to her 2005 critically-acclaimed debut album, Morning Pill, writing for her indie musician's advice column for the L2P Network and GHS Guitar Strings E-Newsletter, and gearing up for an international military tour with the Armed Forces. Calise is also the other half of "Sound of Cancer," her new music project / production house with accomplished drummer/songwriter Dennis Morehouse, which provides and licenses music for film, TV and advertising campaigns.
