About the Artists
Grammy Award-winning Lisa Fischer (“How Can I Ease the Pain”/So Intense) toured with Luther Vandross and The Rolling Stones, and is featured in the Oscar-winning documentary film, 20 Feet from Stardom. Commanding astounding vocal artistry, she takes center stage with pianist Taylor Eigsti.
“Lisa Fischer in concert is addictive. Every performance is so enriching, so exciting, so transcendent that you want more. With remarkable vocal range and vocabulary, Fischer can sing soul, jazz, rock, gospel, pop, folk and classical with equal facility and authority. She often mixes styles in the same song, sometimes in the same vocal line. Her approach tends to be intimate, artful and almost meditative, accompanied by her interpretive dancing, but she also can cut loose and funk with fierceness and rock with abandon” (StarTribune).
“Eigsti exudes fearlessness and joy, secure in the belief that he can make music with anyone” (Variety).
