I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your performance at Gateways on Thursday. You offer much and are one of the reasons we love the Berkshires.

We both completely loved the show.You seemed very confident in your ability which I think provided that sassiness that I referred to. You sang tunes  like a pro, with feeling and love. It was special…so special I walked out without my credit card…thank you very much!!!

“What a terrific performance, and what a fun evening!  You were great; your renditions of Wild Horses and Georgia really got me.  I recommend you begin a national tour immediately… maybe Diana Krall will agree to open for you.”

“Just have to say it again………FANTASTIC SHOW!!   People were smiling, whooping and singing and had an all-around great time.  I could hear sighs from people when you were singing favorite ballads.  I look forward to seeing you in action again.”

‘We thoroughly enjoyed the show.  Your selection was wonderful with so many of my favorites. And your voice was just beautiful.  Your joy in singing shines through.  You have such a unique way of integrating depth, humor, sexiness and fun into one show.  I was very moved… Bill wanted me to tell you he especially loved Hallelujah.  There were  many songs I loved, especially the cowgirl song.   Also Moon River is a favorite.”

“Lisa’s custom cabaret was an exciting, entertaining and meaningful addition to our 35th Anniversary party. She and her musicians wove together the story of our relationship, through both words and songs.  They even performed a song we had requested!  The evening brought our friends together in a way that was very personal and special.  We have hosted many parties, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Lisa’s customized cabaret for any special occasion!”
