I am Girl Friday; singer/ songwriter Lisa Serice based in Houston, TX. Combining traditional, contemporary, and alternative acoustic, rock, and synthed sounds, my music is lyric driven, harmony infused, and designed to draw the listener into the musical poetry of the story. In true singer/songwriter fashion, all songs are crafted to be performed either solo-acoustically with my guitar or fleshed out with a full band; making them versatile enough for a relaxing coffee house vibe or an energy-filled festival stage. My unique gift is creating rich imagery in each tune, making each of them like a little movie its own right. My first EP, "Light of the Moon," was produced by Dan Workman, President and Owner of Sugar Hill Studios in Houston. A long standing member on various governing boards of The Recording Academy, Dan has produced and recorded national artists including Houston's own, Beyonce. After "Light of the Moon," I co-produced my second EP, "Songbird," with acclaimed Houston sound engineer Brian Baker of Sound Arts Studios whose work helped launch the national career of American alternative rock band Blue October. Since the release of "Songbird," I've released several more studio singles that can be downloaded directly from my websites. I'm a member of both The Recording Academy and ASCAP and have played at notable acoustic venues including NYC's landmark Bitter End, Mic Club and Wicked Willies (also in NY's Lower East Village), Dallas' House of Blues, Momo's on Austin's world famous 6th Street, nationally acclaimed listening room Dosey Doe Coffee House in The Woodlands, Lestat's West Coffee House in San Diego, The DeGraw brothers' National Underground in NYC, Houston's McGonigel's Mucky Duck (recognized at one of the nation's top 20 acoustic venues), and many other acoustic coffeehouses and wine bars in the Greater Houston area such as GenuWine, Water2Wine, Crescent Moon, and 13 Celsius. I have also been an active participant in "Chick Singer Night;" the world's most notable and longest running songfest for female artists featuring such nationally recognized artists Sheryl Crow, Norah Jones, and Paula Cole to name a few. I am also a musician volunteer in the Houston community with Love Street Light Circus (TONIC...take our noise into children's hospitals), a non-profit musicians on call program that brings live music to the bedsides of pediatric cancer, renal, and orthopedic patients. I additionally support The Y's Partners Campaign, donating performances and portions of EP sales to raise money to scholarship children into programs that promote a healthy spirit, mind, and body. I've donated song rights to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and am also songwriter for the national Songs of Love Foundation; writing original,customized tunes for critically ill pediatric patients in hospitals across the US.
