"a lovely songwriter with a great voice" Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2
"brilliant! Lisa has a great voice" Glenn Tilbrook, Squeeze
"In a sea of smart female singer-songwriters, Lisa Redford is an admiral.' Maverick Magazine ****
Influenced by classic singer-songwriters such as Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young and contemporary artists such as Neal Casal, Ryan Adams, Josh Rouse, Mindy Smith and Kathleen Edwards, Lisa is a versatile singer-songwriter whose music has been described as delicate acoustic roots pop with heartfelt lyrics, gorgeous melodies and stunning vocals.
She has released three acclaimed albums 'Slipstream'(2003), 'Lost Again'(2005) and 'Clouds with Silver' that have received airplay across the world including Bob Harris's BBC Radio 2 shows. Her track 'Dragonfly' was played on his 'Best of British' show which featured the Best British songwriters and in December 2006 she was personally asked to do a live session and interview on the show. February 2007 saw her invited to appear as the special guest at a 'Bob Harris presents..Americana' showcase at London's Borderline.
A compelling live performer, Lisa has performed lots of prestigious venues in the UK, Europe and Vancouver and opened for many respected artists including Chuck Prophet, Kathryn Williams, Brian Kennedy, The Handsome Family, Devon Sproule, The Hot Club of Cowtown, The Deadstring Brothers, Eileen Rose, Rod Picott, Gina Villalobos, Corb Lund, Jeff Black, Eve Selis, Jess Klein, Johnathan Rice, and Kate Campbell. First album 'Slipstream' captured a very acoustic sound, close to Lisa's wonderful live performance while 'Lost Again', produced by Gabriel Minnikin, a former member of acclaimed Canadian alt-country band, The Guthries, took her blend of exquisitely melodic country pop to another level with beautiful lush arrangements and an increase in instrumentation. Brand new album 'Clouds with Silver' was co-produced with respected musician and producer Brad Albetta (Martha Wainwright, Teddy Thompson) and has already garnered glowing reviews and airplay.
Due to the wide praise received for her music, Lisa earned a distribution deal with the UK's biggest independent distributor, Proper.
"Live, her voice really has immense power yet great control too and reminds me of the same heart worn tender vibrato of a young Emmylou Harris. Lisa's voice is purer with a warm timbre, but has that same raw emotion in her voice that makes you feel she has lived through all the heartbreak she sings and writes about."
