"Imagine a sound that makes your heart yearn...Imagine a sound that makes your soul smile...Imagine a sound that caresses your senses, and never lets go...That rare sound is no longer a figment of the imagination."
Lisa Gardenia is an extremely unique and talented songstress/songwriter whose passion is her music.
Lisa has performed in numerous artist
showcases and talent shows including: Hawaii Stars in Honolulu, Hawaii; X-Posure Productions
Artist Showcase in Bowie, Maryland; and Café Colonial in Sacramento, California.
Raised on the sweet sounds of Al Green, Marvin Gaye, and The Staple Singers, Lisa says she
immediately fell in love with Mavis Staple’s voice. “It was like finding myself. Even though I was a young girl, her voice seemed to reflect how I felt deep inside, “ she says. Lisa's
versatile vocal styling is rooted in the church, where she began singing at age five. She says,
“ When our choir sang traditional hymns, I would always strive to change the sound and delivery of the song, to make it sound like it had never sounded before.I always wanted to put my own ‘stamp’ on it. “
And Lisa's “ stamp “ is what makes her so captivating. When she sings, she takes you on a musical journey.through her lush R&B grooves, around her graceful jazz phrasings, and finally into her world of sound that will totally envelop and fulfill your entire being.
Not currently.
My musical influences are.....Al Green, Mavis Staples, Nancy Wilson, and Stevie Nicks.
Life is good because God is good.
