Vocalist, Recording Artist and Educator
You will find excellence on many levels. Pitch,
tone, improvisation song selection and arrangement-sheer talent, too.
- Mark Murphy
The complaint has often been lodged that no young jazz singers are coming up to take over from the Fitzgeralds and Vaughans. Every once in a while a singer such as Lisa Rich will come along and give the lie to this theory.
- Leonard Feather, Los Angeles Times
LONG AS YOU'RE LIVING
LONG AS YOU'RE LIVING
NEW CD!
“An exquisite and exciting, surprise-filled new collection … the singer’s eclectic set finds her in giddy, happy-to-be-alive mode from the start, infusing the cheery, life affirming title track with her wild and witty phrasing and whimsical, multi-octave scatting. This album will make every jazz fan grateful that Lisa’s still living and thriving – and will hopefully inspire her to keep the comeback going for years to come.”
—Jonathan Widran, JW Vibe
"Lisa's voice is strong, elastic, and capable of conveying a wide range of emotions."
—W. Royal Stokes, The Washington Post
Produced by Lisa, Jay Clayton and Bob Dawson
