The Versatile "Quickster"

You have to blast her music LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!! You have to let her unique voice and theatrical wit take you on a journey filled with "hopeful" stories. Stories that make you want to dance, sing-along or be around good food, good wine and just good people. "Quickster" Lisa E. Harris is without a doubt a woman that has been around and influenced by good music making. Every once in a blue moon there's that dull phase in music but personally Lisa is truly a breath of fresh air.
I want to say she reminds me of Ms.Simone, slapped with some Chaka and sassy like Erykah. But, I can't commit to it because even though the Houston native reminds me of these powerful women, she is truly laying down her own path. I know, I know what would a simple Brooklyn Blogger know about "Who's Next." I have never been so moved before, she sang in front of me and my friend Sergie and ever since then we have never forgot about her.
Poet/narrator/guitarist/dancer and film imager, believe it or not this unsigned talent takes the title of all of these.She writes all her songs and I'm telling you Lisa just pushes the bar.There's no fabrication or robotic creations of what an artist is suppose to be at all!!Houston based producers Sedari and Moon help trumphet the songstress voice on each track. Her flow is sultry and cruises through on each beat, nice and easy.

Lisa's music is for the unique listener.The type of listener that has a very eclectic and versatile ear.If you blast the sounds from Portishead to Marcia Griffith's then she should be on your playlist pretty soon.She's even recorded with M-1 of Dead Prez, Exit and Noble Society. You will connect with her, her music will uplift and move you.Im so excited about her future, Lisa your next GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!
