About the Songwriter
Check out Lissie's latest video
Lissie was born and raised in Rock Island, IL. She was Annie in Circa '21 Dinner Playhouse Production and performed in 82 shows. This event has ultimately led Lissie to a life as a full time working musician and vocalist. She recently signed a record deal with Sony/BMG UK. If this wasn't big enough news, Lissie was then asked to be the opening act for Lenny Kravitz on his current North American tour. Despite all of her success, Lissie keeps a down to earth attitude about it all. She walks her dog Byron frequently around Hollywood and when she is not touring, she plays most Wednesday nights at Cranes Tavern.
