Details:
"a sound all of her own ... no musical boundaries ... wild creativity ... songs fly high with emotional power, waves of shimmering aural euphoria ... " PETERBOROUGH EXAMINER
Raised by the sea on the west coast of Canada, Lisa writes, sings, plays piano and alto sax and is an artist driven by wanderlust and curiousity. Her distinctive sound brings her mixed Roma and Celt heritage, world travels, and studies in Global music to contemporary songwriting. It is an eclectic mix, falling somewhere between Lhasa and Jane Siberry with a dash of Bjork. With her exotic sonic mix and earthy voice Lisa sings about journeys and the longing for connection and understanding. Lisa is an artist who looks forward to the day when mainstream media reflects the cultural and creative diversity of the world''s population.
"... forever exploring and unpredictable, which makes the record fascinating ... strong songwriting evident of a personal vision ... " VANCOUVER PROVINCE (****/5 star)
As a youth, Lisa studied Classical piano and Highland dancing and created poetry and stories inspired by international travel with her pilot father. By high school she was blowing alto sax in an award winning Jazz Band and later studied South Indian and Middle Eastern music.

"some use the elements of European and Indian Folk traditions as ornamentation, but Patterson brings them together to suggest a harmony that is all too lacking in this world "
