Seela Misra

Seela is known for an expressive vocal range, "one moment she rasps like a Jersey deli queen, the next she's cooing coquettishly.

"[4] Seela's initial foray into recording, Probably Lucy (1994) conveyed "a spare sultriness,"[2] and was called "a languid acoustic romp through the varied terrain of the poetic heart,"[5] quickly selling out its first pressing.

"[2] Indeed, depth of mood and emotion, thus far, has defined her career and stage presence: "Her stare is direct, like Krishna contemplating Radha,"[2] while her "voice is her main calling card, soft and inviting, belying the darkness in her songs.

"[7] "Sonically compelling,"[6] Seela is sought out in the Austin music scene, adding vocals to albums across a wide range of genres, while complimenting numerous artists on stage.
