MP3 Lisa Koch - You Make My Pants Pound and other show tunes
12 MP3 Songs
EASY LISTENING: Musicals/Broadway, POP: Quirky
Details:
Lisa Koch has long been recognized as one of the most talented performers in the Seattle area. As a singer, songwriter, comedian and actor, Lisa''s talents span genres and defy definition. She''s wildly funny, irreverent, and unpredictable. She''s a talented singer and a gifted performer. Her songs can touch your heart or make you laugh so hard you''ll cry.
You Make My Pants Pound and other show tunes... is a collection of some of her best work. Lisa has written, produced and starred in many shows over the years. This CD represents a compilation of some of her best work in these shows.
The title cut examines love through a drive-in burger perspective. A Womanly Song is a wildly funny song for women and people who want to be women...The Curve of No Return takes us on a curvaceous retro ride with a big time producer and a perhaps too gullible up-and-coming femme fatale. From start to finish, this CD will entertain you.
What the Critics Are Saying
"...Lisa Koch picks up where Bette Midler left off..." --Music Connection
"...reminiscent of the uproariously tacky mishmash once beloved by the Divine Miss M.... with sing-along lyrics like ''my vulva is singing'', the singer fills major musical gaps we may have been heretofore unaware of..." --Out Magazine
"Koch has the same mischievous energy as the early Bette Midler. She seems to have that sense of joi de vivre that makes her instantly likeable. She''s an out lesbian with a universal appeal..." --Washington Blade
"Koch''s latest CD (Both of Me) sounds like her best...there is plenty to choose from on this wonderful album..." --Gay and Lesbian Times
"...she is a performer, a comic, and some say, a creative genius...she recycles, she cares about toxic waste, and has written a latte song that she uses in her act...very, very Seattle..." --Cafe'' Ole'' Magazine
"...the songs penned by Lisa Koch are ribald, poignant, and complete. She is a songwriting talent to be reckoned with... most importantly, Lisa Koch is very funny!" --New Directions For Women
About Lisa Koch
Let''s see... mix a touch of Bette Midler, a healthy dose of Carol Burnett, and a smattering of Karen Carpenter and you''ve got Lisa Koch. An irreverent Seattle singer/comedian, Koch (pronounced "Coke") blends comedy, theater, and music with dysfunctional characters and her demented songs, both original and parody. She has released three solo recordings ("Both of Me," "Colorblind Blues" and "You Make My Pants Pound and other show tunes..."), is one-half of hilarious Seattle sketch-comedy duo, Dos Fallopia ("My Breasts Are Out of Control," "Pretty Girls, Not Too Bright"), and is an alumnus of cult quartet Venus Envy ("I''ll Be A Homo For Xmas"). She has shared the stage with a diverse group of artists, including Steve Martin, Kate Clinton, Dave Brubeck, Janis Ian, and Suzanne Westenhoefer.
She produces, writes, and performs all over the country, and has been a featured act at the National and Michigan Womyn''s Music Festivals, Vancouver Comedy Festival, and is a regular on Olivia Cruises. Lisa has co-written such hit shows as "The Carpeters: Uncomfortably Close To You," "The Bouffants Go to Hollywood," and "Ham for the Holidays: Cinco de Porko." She also finds time to work as an actor, appearing in a one-woman version of "The Vagina Monologues" and as Mae West in "Dirty Blonde" at the Phoenix Theatre (Indianapolis) and Arizona Theatre Company (Tucson/Phoenix). She was recently nominated for an Outmusic Award (Outstanding New Recording, Female), and Just Plain Folks Award (Best Cabaret Album, Best Cabaret Song).
