Lisa Christian Bio:
From Her Official Website:
Lisa Christian has been earning a living playing nightclubs throughout the Southeastern United States for the last ten years. She is poised to make a VERY good living if the stars continue to fall in line for this talented singer/songwriter.
Lisa is from Philadelphia, PA, home of musical legends Chubby Checker, Teddy Pendergrass, Hall and Oates, and Todd Rundgren. Lisa picked up her first guitar at age 11 and was fronting her first garage band by the time she was 12 years old. Granted, the band members had plastic guitars and cardboard drums, but she was sharpening her chops and sure had a lot of fun.
She spent her teens sneaking into local bars to play and by her early twenties Lisa was working at clubs in downtown Philly and the Jersey shore. In these years, she developed her unique soulful sound and unusual guitar style. In 1995, Lisa moved to Atlanta, GA., where she met singer and songwriter Lisa Durand. They called themselves Christian/Durand (since the name Lisa Lisa was already in use). Their innovative songwriting and harmonious vocal blend was a hit in Atlanta, and they performed at the 1996 Summer Olympics, and Lillith Fair, in addition to a full schedule of nightclub dates.
Christian/ Durand toured the Southeast extensively, and Lisa has opened for Bonnie Raitt, Sarah McLachlan, Queen Latifah, Tony Joe White, America, and even Fabian!
Now a solo artist, Lisa is rapidly becoming the classic decade-long overnight success story. In a time where so much music is artificially produced, then marketed like breakfast cereal (free toy inside!), Lisa is a throwback to a long gone era of singers and musicians who got on stage and worked and sweated over every note, every night, without the crutch of backing tracks, pitch correction devices or half naked writhing backup singers. It’s just Lisa Christian, a craftsman who loves her job, in total control of her voice and instrument. Check her out: it’s well worth your time.
Lisa Christian is touring this summer in support of two new albums: a compilation of laid-back, sexier numbers called “Soft Rock Super Hits Vol. 1” and the terrific live album “Lisa Christian A Go-Go”, which captures the magic of a Lisa Christian nightclub show, complete with politically incorrect songs, audience participation and Lisa’s stellar musicianship.
