Bio

I'm Lisa and I've been an aspiring songwriter since I can remember. I spent every waking moment of my mid teens sitting on my bedroom floor using the 5 chords I had learned and writing music. As I have evolved so has my music and it continues to do so. The last two years of writing and recording, after many years of being silent has seen a HUGE evolution in my music and talent. As each song comes from a new place, the process of how I write and the songs content, takes on a new dimension. Going a day without writing or playing, gives me anxiety and withdrawls. My music opens me up ways that I can't explain and creates a euphoria within me that nothing else equals. I love being inspired and I find my "muses" in all sorts of interesting places, I find myself meeting musicians at every turn and am like a sponge in my learning. Nothing is better than being surrounded by people who share the energy and passion that I do. I stepped out of my "box" this year and have been playing open mic nights. It has been the most amazing experience and I am truly humbled each time I play and have people tell me they love my music AND my voice! Initially I was only interested in getting my music published, but as with any songwriter/singer, and all the available "contests" on the web, I am recording and making videos for licensing opportunities as well as my own vocals. I have been inspired by everyone from Joni MItchell to Carole King to Burt Bacharach and Simon and Garfunkel. Today it's Daughtry, Kings of Leon and
Toby Keith. I love it all...from the 20's and 30's right thru today. Rock, country, classical, alternative, folk, pop, hip hop...you name it and I listen to it and absorb it. I micro manage my songs so that some take months till I feel they are perfected. I have so much music in me and I get inspired in so many places that I have a book I keep phrases and thoughts in, although I rarely go back to it because I sit to write and when I'm in a groove, it just pours out. Sometimes I may only accomplish a line or a chord progression but no mattter, it eventually all comes together. My dream is to write in Nashville and LA and NYC and be in huge demand from the best of the best in the music industry. Until then, I will keep writing and playing and putting myself out in front of the public to overcome my fears and gain the humbling experience of being told how good I am and what I write. <3
