Al1ce blends elements of electronic, dark wave, and progressive rock, with surrealistic and fantastic imagery, to create a dreamy, intimate, dark yet cathartic experience for fans. Inspired by Alice in Wonderland's concept of embarking on a journey through the looking glass, Al1ce's music explores universal themes of the sacred feminine and masculine, yin and yang, challenges and transcendence... the Unity of Opposites. Girl Swallows Nightingale: Led by singer-songwriter, producer, and performance artist Marica Petrey, the Oakland-based band crafts intricate song structures buoyed by infectious funk grooves and heady harmonies. Storytelling and movement are central to her music; the band thrives where sensory planes intersect.
