Lisa DeBenedictis is a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and DIY
producer. Classically trained on piano from a young age, she now plays a
variety of instruments including keys, guitar, bass, violin, and mandolin.
With a vocal delivery that is at once sweet and dangerous, evocative, whimsical
lyrics, and top notch musicianship she has earned comparisons to artists such as
Suzanne Vega, Tori Amos, Kate Bush, Cat Power, Sarah McLachlan, and Annie
Lennox.
In 2005, a set of Lisa's vocal samples was released on ccmixter.org for the
Magnatune remix contest, and Lisa quickly went from a DIY bedroom recording
artist to one of the most remixed vocalists around. She has strong connections
with the remixing community and collaborates with other artists and bands around
the world via the Internet.
She is now performing for live audiences in New England, as well as continuing to write and record new songs.
"...different and refreshing, without being pretentious."
- Jim Kloss, Whole Wheat Radio
"...deliciously innocent vocals...this could well be one of the best self produced albums ever..." (Tigers, 2005)
- Grant Robertson, "The Revolution"
"Whispery, seductive and yet somewhat innocent vocals that suck you into a world she has created just for your pleasure..."
- J.R. Oliver, EarCandyMag.com
"DeBenedictis is a distinctive musician crafting her own unique brand of haunting ballads and Tigers is artistic and emotional!"
- Laura Turner Lynch, Kweevak.com
