Lisa Bouchelle

Artist Information

Biography

Lisa has sung with Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Rob Thomas, Darryl Hall, and Cyndi Lauper, among others. Lisa’s last CD reached #1 on two indie charts, and #4 on the college charts. With the release of her new CD, Bleu Room With A Red Vase, she is poised to be a breakthrough artist in 2011.

Lisa is one of those rare artists that can bring you to tears one moment, such as on “Where You Are,” a heartfelt tribute to her mother, whom she lost to alcoholism at a young age, and then have you laughing out loud, with songs such as “Only The Tequila Talkin’,” a playful duet with John Popper.

And while she may still be an underground artist to fans, she has the respect of her fellow musicians, as evidenced by the fact that the CD has contributions from John Popper and Brendan Hill of Blues Traveler, Rob Hyman of The Hooters, the legendary David Bromberg, chart-topping World Music artist Erin Hill, guitarist Bobby Bandiera (Bon Jovi), violinist Lorenza Ponce (Sheryl Crow), renowned producer Ed Stasium, and hit songwriters such as John Eddie (Kid Rock) and Glen Burtnik (Styx).

Lisa has toured regionally and nationally, opening up for artists such as Blues Traveler, Meat Loaf, Kansas, John Waite, Ingrid Michaelson, Nancy Sinatra, Richard Marx, Hot Tuna, and many others, playing venues from clubs to arenas.

Her style has been compared to Jason Mraz, Sheryl Crow, and Jewel, but what sets her music apart is an edge reminiscent of classic artists such as Neil Young and Tom Petty.

Lisa started singing at a young age, because although her parents loved her deeply, the only time they would stop arguing was when little Lisa sang. Now, after losing both her parents, she still sings every chance she gets, whether it be driving thousands of miles across the US on her own, which she did on her last tour, or playing in the train station for tips. In fact, she was recently interviewed on NPR Radio about her experiences “busking” in the Philadelphia train station.

Bleu Room With A Red Vase has been gaining momentum with adds at WCOO, KRSH, KTAO, WZEW, WBJB, and KBAC, among others. She has made live on-air appearances on WFUV in New York (Legendary radio host Pete Fornatale called her a "gem"), WBJB in New Jersey, WCOO in Charleston, SC, and KRSH in Santa Rosa, CA, among others.
Lisa has appeared on NBC, ABC, Fox, ESPN, and the hit TV show “Gossip Girls.” She will be touring throughout 2011.

Instrumentation

Lisa can play solo, with a duo or trio, or with a full band.

• Lisa Opens For Bryan Adams [+ Show ]
  

  THE AQUARIAN BRYAN ADAMS/LISA BOUCHELLE MARCH 12, 2004 THE TAJ MAHAL ARENA, ATLANTIC CITY, NJ ...THE AQUARIAN
  BRYAN ADAMS/LISA BOUCHELLE
  MARCH 12, 2004
  THE TAJ MAHAL ARENA, ATLANTIC CITY, NJ
  
  A packed house filled the arena at the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City for the hit-laced show Bryan Adams puts on whenever he hits the road. The audience spanned all age groups, and they knew the words to almost all of the songs Bryan pulled from his extensive catalog of rock radio staples.
  The show began, however, with something the crowd wasn't expecting... a set from local rising star Lisa Bouchelle that transfixed all those in the arena, and drew a response rarely seen from an opening act not familiar to most in the audience.
  From the first notes of her opening number, "A Kiss Is Worth 1,000 Words," it seemed she had the crowd in the palm of her hand. With her striking looks and expressive vocals, she won them over with just an acoustic guitar and a bass accompaniment.
  Besides demonstrating her vibrant voice and guitar playing abilities, she treated the crowd to some intricate percussion during "The Detective," a song she performed with only bass guitar, vocal and shaker eggs. When she closed the show with the uptempo "In The End," the applause she drew rivaled that of a veteran concert headliner.
  After her performance, she went out into the arena to watch Bryan Adams from out front, but was mobbed by people asking for a picture, an autograph, or a way to get one of her CDs. Several of the celebrities in attendance went out of their way to stop by after the show and let her know how much they liked her performance, including hit songwriter Andrew Fromm, Grammy winning producer Joe Donofrio, and even Bryan Adams himself. "The best looking opening act I've EVER had," laughed Bryan, and he asked her to leave a CD to take with him.
  Bryan hit the stage with a tough act to follow, but with hits like "Summer Of '69," "Cuts Like A Knife," and "Everything I Do (I Do It For You)," among others, even a workman-like effort would have sufficed, but he gave it a lot more. He put on a straight ahead rock and roll show that proved you don't need fancy lighting and effects, just great songs and a tight band.
  Long time guitarist Keith Scott ripped through the signature solos in many of the songs, and Bryan's voice hasn't aged one bit, with his vocals sounding exactly like they did when he recorded his biggest hits.
  The concert was a double winner for music fans... a night of great hits from one of the venerable rock stars of our time, and a coming out party for a star of the future... and judging from the reaction of the crowd at this show, the not-to-distant future at that.
