DOWNLOAD: Lisa Marie Naponse - "Spell"

From the community of Atikameksheng Anishinawbek in Ontario, Ojibway Lisa Marie Naponse's path as a soulful rhythm and blues artist began with a bet against her mother. Lisa Marie pocketed 100 bucks when she learned to play and master Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues. Since then, she has continued to share and make music, like this track Spell that so perfectly highlights her powerful blues vocals. Listen, download, sing along at the top of your lungs and enjoy.

And yes, she was named after Elvis' daughter.
