Alisa Xayalith

August 2, 2014 in Singers/Musicians/DJs by Luke | 8 comments

AllThingsGood recommended Alisa Xayalith, who is indeed one of the good things…

She is from the alternative rock band The Naked and Famous, who hail from Auckland, New Zealand where they formed in 2008. Alisa met Thom Powers in MAINZ music college and they recorded the EPs This Machine and No Light. Their music was met with critical acclaim at the NZ Music Awards and was nominated in the BBC’s Sound of 2011. They have subsequently released two albums: Passive Me, Aggressive You (2010) and In Rolling Waves (2013).

Her father was a singer in a band in his native Laos—the family fled after the country’s civil war. Xayalith was born in New Zealand in 1986 and taught herself to play guitar after being inspired by another hot NZ Asian rock chick Bic Runga. A Patti Smith biography inspired her to cut her hair short and it has progressed into a really cute blonde pixie cut. Alisa is a lady with the talent to back up her good looks. :)

    The blond pixie cut and the accent sets her apart. And a singer… Siren.

    With the short blonde hair, she looks like an Asian Miley Cyrus. Ugh.

    With long dark hair, she looks more Korean than Laotian.

    She is much, MUCH better looking with long dark hair!

    Very nice, I really like pic#11. I think it shows the passion and intensity in which I attribute to Asian women. She is really into what she is doing and thats a turn on.
