Shredding the 'blonde from California' stereotype, Lisa Baker smartens up the image of the female guitar player.

Currently supporting the release of her jazz CD, Song for a New Day, Lisa separates herself from the current crop of female singer-songwriters by taking on multiple roles, including those of producer, engineer and songwriter. But most impressive is her role as guitarist. Her ability to improvise alongside such respected musicians as Oteil Burbridge, Derico Watson, and Regi Wooten puts her in a category all on her own.
