Getting there in my own musical time... :)

About Me

I am a Texan at heart, born and raised and proud to be from a hometown filled with so much history and culture. At my core, I am a songwriter, a singer, a music artist -- I love country music and I write a lot of it because it is my story, my life, emotions, my relationships. I wrote the ten songs on my first album Wildfire and I’m really proud of that album. It was a project of love and a life learning experience. I’m always writing new songs – I love love love writing – there isn’t enough paper or computer drive space, or time in a day to hold the amount of music I want to write. I am currently writing a new album so stay tuned…I’m extremely passionate about everything I put my heart into. I believe that if you love something you will work hard for it and give it everything you have. I have only begun to scratch the surface in my musical journey and plan to work hard at continuing to grow my skills and opportunities throughout my life. Music is my dream and my passion. To all my fans and friends who continue to support me and help to make my dream possible, THANK YOU WITH ALL MY HEART! - Lisa
