| "Lisa Lauren Loves the Beatles" Singer, songwriter and pianist Lisa Lauren's 4th CD is a compilation of Beatles tunes, endearingly titled, "Lisa Lauren Loves the Beatles." A mix of pop, jazz, folk, and world music, the CD's understated, acoustic arrangements bring new life to these classic favorites. What would initially seem like an exercise in bad judgment, Lisa's affectionate re-working of Beatles songs has received an enormously positive response, and is frequently featured on WXRT Chicago's (her hometown) "Breakfast With the Beatles" show as well as other radio shows nationally. Special appearances by Grammy award-winning sax player David Sanborn, singer/songwriter Willy Porter, and high-profile Chicagoans like Fareed Haque, Howard Levy, Steve Rodby and Neal Alger give the compilation an added cachet and is already garnering rave reviews. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Jazz News :: home page |
