“When Lisa sings, she has a way of reaching right into the center of your soul. What resonates is amazing, powerful and calm all at the same time. Lisa makes you feel things you’ve never felt before,” is how one fan describes Lisa Ferraro’s mesmerizing, rich, sultry voice.

Lisa began singing as a young child; often the backyard was her stage. “My earliest memories are of gathering music in from the sky,” she recounts. “I felt like it was coming from a source as big as the sky, and I was trying to offer it back as big as the sky, too.” Today, her venue has broadened. Lisa has performed with Marvin Hamlisch and the Pittsburgh Pops Symphony and regularly shares the stage with a myriad of other major talent throughout Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Chicago and Atlanta, as well as in her hometown, Pittsburgh. Her Jazz and New Thought performances keep her busy and her audiences captivated.

Along with a distinct vocal style and presence that is truly ‘Lisa’s and Lisa’s alone’, Ms. Ferraro has also gained notoriety as a prolific songwriter/writer. She has composed lyrics for recording artists, commercial jingles and special events. Commissioned by the Major League Baseball association, Lisa wrote and sang at the dedication to the legendary Roberto Clemente. She has also been solicited to compose music for films. In addition, Lisa authors children’s books and inspirational poetry and has committed herself to improving the lives of children around the world. In 1999, Lisa founded a non-profit organization with which she intends to provide children with an alternative to foster care by creating and offering an environment in which children and adults will thrive.

Currently, Lisa has recorded and released five CD’s. The first, Balance (1998), is a collection of original, uplifting, powerful songs that spark freshness and  insight. LYF’s (Life’s) Standards (2003), is an outstanding collection of classic jazz standards intermixed with unforgettable originals of her own. Timeless, also a jazz standards compilation, is a “must own”, featuring jazz legends, Roger Humphries, Dwayne Dolphin and Joe “Handyman” Negri (Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood). Pianist/Composer, Max Leake, collaborates with the arrangements. Her fourth, Jazz Up The Holidays (2004) is an amazing and exciting Christmas CD recorded live at The Manchester Craftsmen's Guild. The compilation of holiday favorites is mixed by 2 time Grammy Award winning engineer, Jay Dudt and arranged by the world-renowned Mike Tomaro. Jazz legend, Roger Humphries (drums), along with, Max Leake (piano), Eric Susoeff (guitar),  Kurt Lorence (bass), Joe Henrdon (trumpet), Bob Matchett (trombone) and The Laurel Strings Trio accompany Lisa on this one-of-a-kind, musically explosive CD.   Her most recent CD, Sing Your Song...To Fill The Sky is incomparable for its vibrancy and artistic freshness. This CD aims straight for the heart and soul. Eight of the nine tracks were composed by Lisa. A powerhouse of extraordinary musicians  ( Max Leake, Paul Thompson, Dale Cinski, Greg Humphries, Kenny Blake, Brian Stahurski, John D'Amico, Hollis Greathouse, Andy Reamer) and a full choir accompany her to create this musical 'experience'.
