L - Liza

Liza sings her heartfelt songs in the language of minstrels - Occitan (Provençal), alongside French and English. Her musical blend is inspired by jazz, North African, Gypsy, Celtic and Mediterranean world music. May these songs take you away and let you dream of beautiful lands.

For her new album “L”, Liza turned to the talented jazz fusion Cascino Trio to bring her heartfelt songs to life - with Patrick Cascino on piano, Charly Tomas on doublebass and Luca Scalambrino on drums. In the Recording Studio, they were joined by other fine musicians: Ralph Adamson on oud, Vincent Magrini on his “guitariole” (a hybrid guitar-meets-cello instrument), and Régis Sévignac on backing vocals. After few days all together in the studio in Marseille, Liza and the Cascino Trio are now on tour to share these songs with you.

Wherever you may be in the world, just let Liza’s warm heartfelt melodies reach out and take you by the hand, to lands you love to dream about.
