Gerald Albright's Lone Tree Sessions: Ms. Lisa Fischer and Grand Baton

“While she may be a glamazon screamer with the Stones, on her own she’s an earthy, organic, artful singer who creates deeply intellectual, deeply soulful, deeply meditative music — one strikingly imaginative interpretation of a song (famous or obscure) after another.” –Minneapolis Star Tribune

“Fischer’s dazzling voice was a precision instrument she skillfully wielded to encompass the full spectrum of emotions.” – Jazz Times

The music of Lisa Fischer and her band, Grand Baton, is an organic gumbo of progressive rock, psychedelic soul, and African, Middle Eastern, Caribbean rhythms and classical influences. Lisa Fischer spent most of her career as an elite backup singer for artists like Luther Vandross, the Rolling Stones, Sting, and Tina Turner. Now with her band, Grand Baton, they re-invent classic rock standards and R&B favorites, creating a fresh and genre-defying experience for their audience.
