artist photo Lisa DeBenedictis began piano lessons at an early age and flirted with the idea of being a concert pianist. After years of practice and study, she decided she would rather learn guitar and play in a rock band.

She dropped out of music school, taught herself guitar and formed her first band in 1999, a rock duo called "Ring of Nine" which mainly played Concrete Blonde covers in New England coffee joints. Since 2001, she has also been one half of the California Avant Rock duo "DirtyDirtyRockStar." In addition to writing songs, Lisa composes instrumental music for film.

Lisa's solo music is fresh, original, and gorgeous. Her songs have an ethereal quality that will take you to another world.

A "one-woman operation," Lisa plays a variety of instruments including piano, guitar, keyboard, violin, oboe, and mandolin. She is the sole writer, performer, and producer of all her music.

With smart lyrics and fresh, interesting arrangements, she has earned comparisons to artists such as Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Annie Lennox, and Aimee Mann.
