Go to my Youtube channel to see and hear new, as yet unreleased songs performed live in Austin Texas.
 
Happy New Year Everyone.
I invite you to take a look at some live video footage from the December 13th show. The songs are all new and you can find them here at youtube . This was the first time the songs were performed in public. The videos were shot by Jett Cain at RutaMaya Cafe in Austin Texas. The sound was recorded by Curt Ganem.
Feel free to make comments, let me know what you think of the songs, rate the videos, send them to your friends and if you feel really moved, make a sponsorship donation (that's the button over on the right!) to help with recording costs so I can get these new songs out into the world! Yea!!
I will keep you posted on all things musical. I wish everyone good health and happiness, good friends, enough to eat and a roof over your head. The rest is bonus eh.

Well it is finally cold here in Austin Texas and it is so refreshing. I am getting ready to play a bunch of new songs for the first time in a public venue with my trusty musician friends Jeff May (bass and guitar) and Wally Doggett (drums and percussion). We are videoing the show so pretty soon there'll be some live video and then in the new year a new CD (all being well!). Also Christmas is coming so if you are thinking about giving the gift of music, keep me in mind. You can buy my CD's at cdbaby and downloads at itunes. Gift certificates are also an excellent idea for music minded folks..go to my lessons page for information on the possibilities...or feel free to e-mail me if you have questions. I'm also happy to mail CD's to you directly if you'd prefer to buy them straight from me. So I hope to see you at one of my upcoming shows and don't forget you can always show your support for my artistic expression by sponsoring me with a little cash!!
At any rate..Happy December everyone

We had our first rehearsal last Sunday. I am doing pre production work on a bunch of new songs, getting ready to record in December. Right now I am working with my husband Jeff May who plays bass and guitar and Wally Doggett who has set out to re-invent the drum kit. The plan at his point is to do some live recording at Sweatbox studio in Austin (recording to tape and then bouncing to digital) as a 3 piece and to also video record this on HD video. We may or may not do this as a very intimate concert. In addition to this I am planning to record a couple of live shows at Rutamaya in December. One as a trio and one with some additional instrumentation...cello, french horn, trumpet, trombone.... And simultaneously beginning to work on a studio version of all these songs which we will begin recording at home. I’m pretty excited about all the new songs. I’ve been inspired by lots and lots of things...including films, books, conversations, newspaper articles, my own life and the lives of others. The vibe is very eclectic as usual...elements of jazz and rock and blues and pop and folk and perhaps a teeny bit of roots/country... Stay tuned!!

Happy October everyone,
I have had my CD 'Mad Mad Love' available for free download at Frostclick and to date I've had 70,000 downloads which is very very exciting. Thank you to all the people who are listening to me for the first time! So many new people are hearing my music and it's great.
It got me thinking that if all of those people who downloaded my CD contributed $1.00, then I would have more than enough money to make record my next CD!! I have a bunch of new songs that I have been testing out and will be recording a new CD in December. I'm going to start off with a live recording and video of an intimate concert here in Austin Texas because that is the most cost effective way to get the music out and a live recording is a unique 'concert' experience and then simultaneoulsy be working on the studio version of all the songs.
I am raising money to record my new CD, so if you download "Mad Mad Love' and you are excited to hear what I'm going to do next, I invite you to make a contribution by clicking on the 'Sponsor Lisa' button. Everyone who contributes, will receive a copy of the live CD. So once you make a sponsorship contribution, e-mail me your address and I will mail you a CD when the recording is done in December.
I'll keep you updated!
Lisa
