 This show features a great hour spent with Lillian Frances. Lillian is a born-and-raised Davisite who currently resides in Los Angeles, CA. She picked up the guitar in middle school, but didn't start playing habitually until college. During her sophomore year at Occidental College, Lillian began writing, performing, and recording her own music. She plays in bars and cars and houses and sometimes in the streets, for anyone who will listen. She's set to release her debut album this Spring.

 (a quick disclaimer - a few technical hicups but stick with it - Andrews talent really shines) In praise of the BASS - it’s what anchors and creates the beat. Andrew Walton is our guest this week. He is a superb bass player with abilities well beyond his age. Listening Lyrics is thrilled to start the 2015 season with this terrific talent.

 The first time I heard her perform--actually the first few moments I heard her--I knew I wanted her on the show. That was a few months ago, now we all get to hear her perform live in the studio and get to know Lisa. Lisa was born and raised in South Carolina and lived a short time in Indiana. She was classically trained on the piano and started writing songs at age 11. When she is not playing music, she can be found conducting experiments on infants in the UD Davis Center for Mind and Brain or working on her psychology-story-telling podcast, An InExact Science.
