Dame Lisa Simone is undeniably her own woman whose talents transcend genres echoing the tradition of her mother – Dr. Nina Simone, musical icon and pioneer. Likewise, she has been influenced by historical figures spanning the globe, as well as legends across industries including the arts, music, politics, royalty, entertainment, and spirituality. Blessed with a rich vocal range, an innate skill for lyrical interpretation, the gift of storytelling, and a deep understanding of music as a means of healing, empowerment and celebration, Lisa carries on the family tradition of‘griot’, as her mother coined it, in her own right and on her own terms.
A highly praised international live performer whose impressive resume includes starring roles on Broadway in the original, and touring casts, of acclaimed musicals Rent and Aida, Lisa’s diverse repertoire - which she calls ‘soul music’ - encompasses big band, classical, pop, funk, reggae, jazz, blues, and gospel. Her reputation precedes her and her sold out performances throughout the U.S., Europe, Asia, Scandinavia, the Caribbean, and South America are the stuff of legends, inspiring and enlivening those in attendance, en masse.
