Ms. Lisa Fischer and her band, Grand Baton, first set out on tour in 2014 in-between Lisa's tours with The Rolling Stones, with no product to sell, no recordings or video to help book or promote shows, no t-shirts. Despite all that, based on Lisa's reputation alone, they were invited to play in clubs, at the Newport and Monterey Jazz Festivals, and at concert halls all over the globe, winning accolades from critics, devotion from fans, and--always--invitations to return, soon. Their music is an organic gumbo of progressive rock, psychedelic soul, and African, Middle Eastern, Caribbean rhythms and classical influences. In performance, they re-invent songs by Led Zeppelin, Amy Grant, Little Willie John, Luther Vandross, and The Rolling Stones or Lisa's Grammy winning solo hit "How Can I Ease The Pain." Lisa has emerged as the most inventive and heartfelt interpreter of classic rock standards and R&B working today. This musical partnership elevates both Fischer's artistry and Grand Baton's distinctive style, resulting in a harmonious blend that resonates with audiences seeking a fresh and genre-defying musical experience.
