Album Notes

Lisa Lauren is a recording artist residing in Chicago. A pianist, singer, and songwriter, Lisa released her first CD, "what comes around" independently, generating airplay on hundreds of jazz and pop stations across the U.S., Europe and Australia. Last year, her CD earned a spot on the "Most Increased Plays" list of Radio & Records' NAC/Smooth Jazz Albums and also landed on Gavin's Smooth Jazz & Vocals "Chartbound" list. Miramar Records in Seattle took notice and picked up the record for re-release. Most recently, Lisa released her follow-up CD, "my own twist" on the independent Planet Jazz label. Both recordings boast the appearance of Grammy Award-winning saxophonist David Sanborn.
