About Me

Viviens musicality, unique and soulful vocals, dynamic personality and powerful stage presence, combined with her absolute love and passion for performing, proves her to be one of the most promising up and coming artists and performers of today. Vivien Lesiak, born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii began performing at a very young age. She took an interest in music and theatre and began acting and singing in plays when she was a child. She was involved in musical theatre all throughout her school years and also started singing in her first band while in high school. She then attended the University of Hawaii and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theatre. Vivien has always loved travel and adventure, and during her college years, Vivien traveled to Germany where she studied Theatre and Acting for a year at the Ludwig-Maximillians-University in Munich. She also had the opportunity to perform in a German musical and sing with a German rock band. After returning to Hawaii and upon graduating from college, Vivien got her first professional job in entertainment as a singer/dancer in a musical revue on the cruise ship, The Star of Honolulu. From there, she went on to be the lead singer/dancer in a casino review show at the Isle of Capri Casino in Biloxi, MS. After completing a 6-month contract there, Vivien moved to Los Angeles to continue pursuing the career in entertainment shed always wanted. It was there in Los Angeles where she really began to establish herself as the incredible singer and performer she is today, and where she really began working as a professional singer full-time. She began performing in a variety of bands throughout the LA area and beyond where she performed (and still today does perform) at special events, corporate parties, night clubs, casinos, weddings, etc. singing a wide variety of musical styles including: pop, rock, r&b, alternative, and jazz. She also had the amazing opportunity travel to Japan where she lived worked as a singer for one year in Osaka, singing at Universal Studios and as a jazz soloist at the Ritz Carlton. Upon returning from Japan, Vivien went on to fulfill one of her dreams, which was to star in a Las Vegas show. She became the lead singer in the Las Vegas show "SHOWGIRLS" at the Rio Hotel and Casino. After recently returning from Las Vegas, Vivien now currently resides in Los Angeles again where she continues to work and pursue her passion for performing. She also writes, records, and performs her own original music in the original band she fronts, Miss Bizzario.
