Gig at the Basement, Sydney - February 7th!

After having won the singer/songwriter comp at Narrabeen Hotel last year, 

this was the prize - a gig at the Basement! 

Would love a lil bit of support if you can make it! 

If you can't make it, think of me won't you!

Much love xoxo

Here comes the sun...

Festival of the Sun is happening in a month's time and I'm soooo excited! What an amazing opportunity! Let's hope the weather is fine!

Into the finals!

Played at the semi-finals for a SongsAlive music comp at 

Narrabeen Sands Hotel last night. 

I had quite a lot of fun and overheard the comment 'cute!!' 

numerous times throughout my set. 

Ah dear, 

I'm going to have to embrace that one won't I!

Now I'm in the finals 

which will take place on November 11th at the same venue. 

Would love to see some familiar faces there. Yay!

The simple joys I experienced in one day.

This morning

Tea with my best friend,

Still in my dressing gown.

Honesty, laughs and love

Shared all in just over an hour.

This evening

Walk into a room of strangers

Play and offer my music.

Such a warm reception,

New friendships made,

Lives changed.

Rush back to say goodbye.

A dear friend is

Going away for a year.

She's decided to give

All her time,

Her energy and resources

To another country in far greater need than ours.

Selflessness.

An inspiration.

A late night dinner

With friends

Sitting on the kitchen floor

By candlelight.

So much food and fun.

Treasured times forever.

Simple joys

Found in the everyday.

In Relationships. Love.

And music.

And meaning behind it all.

A firm foundation never shaken.

Simple joys

Are often the most profound.

A last minute gig with a nice twist!

Last Tuesday I received an email about a singer/songwriters competition taking place on the Thursday night, asking if I was interested in entering the comp! So I jumped at the opportunity, rocked up to Narrabeen Sands Hotel and performed a set as part of the Songs Alive singer/songwriter competition.

My goals for the evening were accomplished; meeting new people, playing to a new crowd, trying out a few new songs and covers and just enjoying the night. The BONUS was that I won! Haha!

So now on to the semi-finals in a few more weeks!

I was quite amused :)

Hope you are well and happy and are enjoying all the delightful surprises that pop up in your life too!

Love Lissa

I Heart Kirribilli

Feel free to pop on down and be amazed by the talent in the community of Kirribilli!   

I could no longer resist the blog!!

Well here I am - didn't quite expect this, but yes I am now part of the blogging community. Basically a great way for me to update friends and fans about where my music is taking me (and everyone else who dares to get involved!) and also to let a little creative steam off at times.

So I don't really have too much to say right now at 1:30 in the morning, but I DO want to tell you about a gig that is happening THIS FRIDAY.

A cute little cafe named Pablo and Rusty's.

Singing by Lissa

and DJ Dick-Smith.

Artworks by Judith Smith.

Coffee by the amazing coffee people.

Enjoyment by all.

And if you haven't already, have a sneak peak at my new video at www.youtube.com/lissashows to find out about more upcoming dates!

Talk to you soon

:)
