Made in Bombay, born and raised in the UK, micropixie (MPX) is a self-proclaimed alien with extraORDINARY abilities. Not only is MPX a conceptual artist working with visual and verbal design, and a photographer, but she is also the extra-terrestrial alter ego of writer/ filmmaker/ human single beige female. Her debut album, Alice in Stevie Wonderland, weaves sensuous instrumentation with elaborate vocal textures as it narrates the enchanting story of one little alien whose mission on planet Earth is to try on the human experience. MPX\'s epic journey as a human being takes her through the stages of pre-birth, birth, confusion, solitude, disappointment, comprehension, then re-birth, affirmation and evolution. Fusing organic elements - such as tabla, thumb piano, puja bells and bongos - to electronica, the 12 tracks on the album cross many different styles from down-tempo jazzy lounge to spoken word to tabla bols.

For her London debut, micropixie will be accompanied on tabla by Indian/Latin percussionist Renu Hossain.www.micropixie.com www.myspace.com/micropixie
