Lisa Fischer is a GRAMMY Award-winning powerhouse vocalist whose extraordinary voice has supported legends like The Rolling Stones, Luther Vandross, Tina Turner, and Sting.

With remarkable emotional depth and technical brilliance, Fischer brings a unique kind of magic to the stage.

Her artistry is as spiritual as it is sonic—moving audiences from quiet reflection to full-body joy.

Lisa Fischer’s recent performances continue to earn critical acclaim.
