Liz Pisco


Liz Pisco doesn't prostelatize, persuade or beg. Nor does she lick wounds of disillussionment or wallow in ennui, as love songs are prone to do. Real life details, hard boiled smarts, and strong as nails delivery make Liz Pisco's performance a cord of strength that anyone who has ever loved and lost can grasp with both hands. (Megan Miller - west coast performer mag)

Band Biography

With two self-produced EP's under her belt, Liz Pisco is ready to release her first full length recording entitled, "Gravity". Co-produced by well known bay area mastering engineer Michael Romanowski, the official release date will be in Spring 2003. A true example of a do-it-yourself musician, Liz has been creating her own musical journey for the past ten years. Raz Kennedy, vocal coach for Counting Crows and others says of Liz's music, "Honest and authentic songwriting reminiscent of San Francisco rock of the 60's. Liz Pisco writes compelling lyrics and melodic vocals that are haunting and sweeping."

Liz booked, promoted and performed on five tours in sixteen months from November 200-March 2002. Destinations included the Pacific Northwest, the Southwest and the West Coast with a few New York shows thrown in for good measure. This independent artist is working her tail off making two appearances in San Diego on KUSI's morning news program (viewership 70,000), signing a licensing agreement with MTV in March 2001 and as a featured artist on Bay TV's "The Show".

Fulfilling a dream to play the historic Great American Music Hall, Liz produced and performed a benefit concert in her residing city of San Francisco. The show on February 10, 2002 raised nearly $1,000 for one of her favorite organizations, Planned Parenthood.

When National Public Radio (NPR 88.5) was covering the art scene in San Francisco in November of 2000, they sought out Liz to represent the music scene. She played the title track to her CD Let Me In live in her studio, was interviewed and her song, "I Don't Hear Anything" was used to close out the segment.

As well as being chosen the "Artist of the Month" for October 2000 on www.shockvalue.cc and www.thatslive.com, Liz has performed numerous times on KUSF (90.3)'s Sunday morning radio program "diva radio". Her music has been played on other radio stations around the Bay area including KALX's (90.7) "What's Hot" show. Her song "Janet" was #8 on MP#'s folk charts for 3 weeks.

While Liz plans on spending the next few months primarily promoting her new CD and her release party, she will continue to play live with other artists in the Bay Area as well as the Pacific Northwest.

Reviews

Rene Richardson, DJ KFOG (104.5)
Liz Pisco's music is ethereal, goosebumpy and just plain rockin’!

Raz Kennedy, vocal coach for Counting Crows, Rancid, Stroke 9
"Honest and authentic songwriting reminicent of San Francisco rock of the 60's. Liz Pisco writes compelling lyrics and melodic vocals that are haunting and sweeping. "Janet" is classic both compositionally and emotionally."

Alicia, Simon Stinger
"She is an amazing performer- animated, twisted, and wonderful! Check out how her voice changes throughout the song...very cool =0)".
