Lisa grew up in Melbourne Australia and, influenced by her musical family, began to sing and play piano from a very early age. After completing her Diploma in Music Performance at the Australian College of Entertainers at the age of 22, she has travelled the world with her music performing in musicals, on cruise ships and in numerous 5 star hotels. Lisa has won a large Fan Club throughout the world, particularly in Germany and Belgium where she toured and performed regularly for many years before moving to Dubai.
Now based in Dubai, has released her new album “It’s Time”. A blend of acoustic pop with jazz and soul influences this album highlights Lisa’s talent and versatility as a songwriter, singer, pianist and arranger. The music is engaging, sentimental, full of expression and easy listening. Relax, chill out, enjoy and soak it in. Although the majority of the CD presents Lisa singing songs she composed herself, she has included her own interpretations of three cover songs. Stevie Wonder (Blame it on the Sun), a version of Joe Crocker’s “The Letter” and a beautiful interpretation of the song “Time is a Healer”. People who love female jazz and blues vocalists will love Lisa Hugo’s music. Lisa adds that her new compositions are largely inspired by her family and motherhood. One of her favourites, Butterfly, is a slick bossa nova song that profits hugely from the singer’s signature three-octave vocals.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Lisa Hugo with a GrIndie Award for the CD "It's Time "
In the tradition of such venerable performers as Karen Carpenter and Eva Cassidy, Lisa Hugo straddles the boundaries of jazz and pop with equal ease and finesse on her fine new CD, “It’s Time.” With her supple, three octave vocal range and the instincts of a seasoned vet, the Australian born and world-traveled, pianist and singer/songwriter simply delights on this 11-song collection of pop, jazz, and easy listening songs. Backed by a small combo with exemplary taste and feel, Hugo’s piano sets the tone on jazzier numbers like the CD opener, “With You I Can Be Me” and “Oh My Baby,” while the subdued, “Please Try to Understand,” finds Hugo delivering an emotion-laden confessional with only the leanest of guitar, bass, and sprinkling of cymbals. Although very comfortable and adept with the jazz-pop style, the real highlight of the set is “Butterfly,” a wonderfully melodic pop tune as engaging as it is uplifting. Lisa Hugo’s bio is one filled with musical accomplishment all across the globe, but her new CD stands on its own merits. Fans of adult-oriented, tuneful jazz-pop will thoroughly enjoy the perfect blend of polished and sophisticated easy listening music on “It’s Time.” -Rice B. and the RadioIndy.com Reviewer Team |
