Festa: Lisa Fischer & Grand Baton

Festa: Lisa Fischer & Grand Baton

Fischer’s life is an endless round of planes, trains, and automobiles, rehearsals and fittings. It’s easy to see why she works all the time: her astonishing range, her spot-on intonation, her mastery of the stage, the way her tone wraps itself around your heart and won’t let go, the infectious quality of her time feel: these things keep her on top of the list. But it’s the sweetness of her smile, her visible pleasure in watching her bandmates do their stuff, her glamorous-girl-next-door quality that make fans all over the world think she’s their own secret discovery.
