My Father's name is Emerson. My grandfather named all his sons after english writers who inspired him. I have an uncle milton too:) My family and friends call me Lita. Two little fairy sister piano students of mine, arianna and emma, once told me that it stands for love is the answer. :) that made me happy.

Yes. I'll always let you know.

It's an amazing thing to utilize!!! So much music out there and now we can all experience it through internet so easily.

major label? what does that mean anymore really? i'd rather collaborate with people i vibe with, whether they're major or not.

I've been in bands before and I've also sang jazz for a living in New York, Reno, Lake Tahoe, and Truckee, CA. It was a lot of fun and I got to meet AMAZING musicians that taught me so much. I'd love to sing Jazz in L.A. and start putting my original songs out there and performing them live. I'm in 4 different bands now. I love to collaborate and create with others!

Straight ahead Jazz, from Chet Baker to Blossom Dearie to Ella and Billie and Sarah and Joe williams, and Miles and coltraine... you get it. Also,on original music side: Joni Mitchell, Portishead, morcheeba, radiohead, the controls, massive attack, susanne vega, bjork, nathalie merchant, tracy chapman, neil young, bob dylan, bob marley, so MANY more...
