Rustic Riders Sing Songs of Life and Love

About Me

The Rustic Riders have played together since 1997. Previously we played a variety of covers from folk to rock to traditional and some originals. Currently we play almost all original music by Skip and Lisa. For the summer of 2007 we will tour the Adirondacks and North Country.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 11/23/2006
Band Members: Skip Outcault writes songs and sings tenor. He plays guitar and electric bass. Lisa Meissner writes songs and sings alto. She plays guitar, cello, mandolin and bouzouki. Klaus Meissner plays percussion, made Lisa's guitars and lends his ear to the overall sound mix.
Influences: Lisa's influences range from Judy Collins to Odetta and Miriam Makeba. From Ella Fitzgerald to John Prine. From Beethovan and Bach to Traditional Celtic. From Old Time and Contra Dance to Pentangle. From John Hartford and Benny Goodman to Robbie Robertson. She was fortunate to attend a public School that taught "World Music" back in the sixties - long before the genre even had a name. She seeks to create music that lifts the spirit and fosters connections.
