You might know Alicia Witt from her body of work as an actor on shows including Friday Night Lights, Law & Order and Cybill, and from the films 88 Minutes, Two Weeks Notice, Last Holiday and Mr Hollands Opusto name a few. But she is also a classically trained pianist and accomplished singer/songwriter. For the last 3 years, she's been performing her original songs at venues across the country such as Hotel Cafe and Universal Citywalk in Los Angeles, and Joe's Cafe and The Living Room in New York.Her self-titled first EP is out on iTunes. Alicia's first music video, for the single 'Anyway', was played on MTVu and VH1.com. She has also appeared as musical guest on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and is currently working on her next album.

...what a voice. It comes from tender, intimate appeals, soaring to roof raising heights, as she all the while works the piano with ease and command...where Witt really excels is in her ballads, personal and universal poems of love, longing, and everyday girl issues. Her lyrics flow with a poetic polish, and her piano playing rivals that of rockers Billy Joel or Elton John.
