Naomi Elizabeth

Naomi Elizabeth is a solo female vocalist, composer, and performer living in Los Angeles, California. She is generally known for making light-hearted electronic songs and using graphic sexual imagery in photographs and video.
History
Originally from San Diego, California, Naomi Elizabeth began performing music as a solo artist and touring in 2005. During the following years, she has toured with many other performers, including Jessica Rylan (Load Records, RRRecords), Donna Parker, Blue Shift, Kevin Shields (Deathbomb Arc Records), Brian Miller, Twodeadsluts Onegoodfuck (Kitty Play Records), Suffering Bastard, Earth Crown, Josh Hydeman, and Corephallism. Her tendency in live shows has been to gravitate towards harsh noise and sound art based events. She was one of the participants in the 2006 movie by Los Angeles filmmaker Sean Carnage. In 2008 she moved to Los Angeles, California.
Concepts
Naomi Elizabeth's music has two dimensions, both as dance music intended for the greater LA radio market as a commodity, and as a critique of the pre-packaging of emotion and culture in general. Resisting satire or simplification, her oeuvre seeks to find in the specific (the norms of the genre in question) an avenue to the universal. That is to say, her songs use genre conventions as a medium to discuss irony and sincerity. In an interview with Jose Wolff in 2008, she stated:
The project is not intended as ironic, but as a reaction against exhausted ideas of integrity and honesty that insist on the existence of pure meaning. In a 2008 interview with Andre Gomes of Bodyspace.net, she said:
