Lisa Genee
Lisa Genee originally from the East Coast, now a Denver resident performed her heart out at the Meadowlark in Denver March 4 2009. A huge voice from a small woman who plays a mean guitar. Mixing a blend of music from soft ballads to hard edged folk-punk Lisa and her ever present smile illuminated the dark halls of this underground venue. The Colorado Music Buzz had this to say about her;
“Newly arrived from the East Coast, this petite spitfire has turned many a head in the past few months with her seductive tunes and songs that elicit a barrage of imagery replete with tales of yearning and love. Surprising for one who is so young and bears an aura of innocence but possesses an undeniably devilish grin on stage. Watch this savvy girl Denver!” Christian Blochinger
