Lisa Richards www.lisarichardsmusic.com Australian singer and songwriter Lisa Richards has come home after many years living and making music in the USA. Her new album “A Light From The Other Side” has been receiving strong reviews in the press and is being played on ABC National, Regional and Double J radio. Her label-defying voice is instantly recognizable - hints of Etta James, Eartha Kitt, Patty Griffin and Iris Dement folded up in a catalogue of jazz and blues-drenched folk songs that span the breadth of the human experience. Her rich life and quirky sense of humour guarantee an evening filled with humour, stories and surprising musical moments.
