O’s Notes: Lisa has a fine voice that she projects over a dozen tracks, friendly ballads with varying accompaniment. The music is mostly gentle pop with country elements but she injects different elements to broaden the appeal. Kirchner does a fine job playing guitar and singing on “Jesse”. We also enjoyed the rich superimposed harmony on “Riverside”, the funky “Lights of L.A.” and the bouncy spirit of “L’accordéoniste”. She wraps the set with a taste of bossa nova on “Coracão Vagabundo/Berimbau”.
