about the artist

Singer/songwriter/producer Lisa Zuré (pronounced Zoo-ray) is enjoying much deserved and long-awaited worldwide recognition as music lovers everywhere discover her distinctive and soulful sound. You can hear her music on a wide variety of radio shows, including the UK's Solar Radio, Colourful Radio, Starpoint Radio and Peace FM, KISS FM in Sweden, KAZI in Austin, Texas, and many others. The musical stylings of this uniquely creative singer fuse the most delicious elements of R&B, Soul, NuJazz and Hiphop in such an intoxicating way, it can't be compared to anything you've heard before. Soultracks says of her classic "Tongue Tide," (featured on the August 09 "Contemporary Soul Songbook" compilation released by Soul Unsigned) "Having listened to the track at 20 times... I am still hypnotized by the smoky vocals that at times remind me of Chaka Khan... This for me is an example of what timeless soulful music is about, a breath of fresh air... " Tongue Tide also appears on the "Best Undiscovered R&B Soul" compilation just released by Singapore/Malaysian record label EQ Music.

A native Californian, Lisa Zuré has sung, written and co-produced for other very talented artists. Her 4 years in BedStuy, Brooklyn gave birth to her latest solo venture. "SWEET FRUIT," (2008, 1st Mind Entertainment) is guaranteed to quench your thirst for something sweet, sensual, mind-catching, seductive, head boppin' and possibly addictive. Each song on the EP reveals another aspect of the signature sound that has evolved from her collaboration with ingenious producer Mr.Diz (aka The Original K-Swift), whose innovative and unparalleled talent carried this project from inception to completion. Their musical chemistry infuses "SWEET FRUIT" with a creative madness and unforgettable sound that will have you craving for more.

For all of November of 2007, Lisa and her song "Can't Tell Him No," quickly rose and maintained the Number 1 spot for Independent Song and Artist (and ranked in the Top 10 of All Artists) on the Blackplanet/Vibe Music Page. A second song, "Break It Down," maintained its position as Number 4 Independent Song.

The good news is...music is always evolving... and so does Lisa Zuré's sound.. Her next album, "Music To Save My Life," promises to incorporate some of the industry's top musicians, intriguing and engaging her listeners on every level... Stay tuned, for the journey has just begun.

Wishing You a Blessed and Prosperous 2010- A Special Thank You Gift to My Fans!!!

Greetings,

Sending you heartfelt wishes for a Peaceful, Prosperous, Blessed and Love-Filled 2010. I'll be working on my new album, "Music to Save My Life," which will feature talented live musicians along with the ingenious production of my producer Mr. Diz.... and a few surprises.

As a special "Thank You" gift to my fans, I'd like to send you a free mp3 of the new Sweet Fruit Live-Remix, slated to make its debut on UK radio this month. We brought in a great live drummer and had a blast in the studio (video coming soon!). If you'd like your own sneak preview copy of the Sweet Fruit Live-Remix, just send me your email address and I'll send it right along!!!

I've been extremely blessed this year, as folks are now discovering me in the UK and I've been getting a quite a bit of play on UK Radio.

I so much appreciate the love and support.... especially from you, my Blackplanet fans. You were among the very first! It would be my pleasure to thank you with this free mp3, so please be sure to send me your email address.

Many blessings to you and yours... and thank you!

Lisa
