Lisa's debut album 'Slipstream' was released in November 2003. The album contains 12 songs all written, performed and produced by Lisa and captures a very natural acoustic sound because she wanted the recordings to be as near to her compelling live performances as possible. Slipstream gained widespread glowing reviews, and tracks from the album received airplay on Bob Harris' Saturday show on BBC Radio 2 and various other radio stations around the world.

Singer/songwriter Lisa Redford's third release The Acoustic Sessions includes the original live studio versions of the songs from her second studio album Lost Again. Beautifully recorded, the songs truly reveal Lisa's soulful and powerful voice with just acoustic guitar and touches of mandolin and is a wonderful chance to hear the songs from Lost Again in their original form (as heard in the promo video for 'Why' which is featured on Lisa's myspace page and youtube. The album excludes Lisa's version of Neal Casal's 'Fell on Hard Times' as this was a live recording anyway but instead the album ends with a rare bonus track 'Changing Times'.

Recorded at Flying Pig Studios, UK

Lisa Redford “one of our finest singer/songwriters” (Bob Harris) returns with her eagerly anticipated third studio album CLOUDS WITH SILVER a glorious and heartfelt follow up to the critically acclaimed LOST AGAIN (2005).

Featuring eleven finely crafted self-written songs CLOUDS WITH SILVER takes Lisa’s blend of exquisitely melodic acoustic music to another level. With most tracks recorded live, the album is infused with a real intimacy showcasing Lisa’s soulful and powerful voice and heartfelt lyrics. From album opener, the upbeat radio friendly "Come Back Down", to the sweeping uplifting “Live Your Life”, through to the plaintive yearning ballads “The Boy Who…” and "Makes Your Heart Sing", the album is full of standout tracks. Other highlights include the dreamy "Call Me" and "NY Song" which also display her dynamic and evocative voice and immense gift for melodic hooks. The album closes with live tracks “New Years Day” and “Time to Grow”. Recorded live in the studio with just her voice and acoustic guitar, these two tracks totally capture the raw heartfelt emotion of Lisa's live performance.

Recorded mostly in New York City at Monkeyboy Studios, the album is co-produced with respected producer and multi-instrumentalist Brad Albetta(Martha Wainwright, Rufus Wainwright, Teddy Thompson) who also adds some subtle sonic dimensions on bass and keyboards. The acoustic songs are also enriched by some truly beautiful string arrangements. “Makes Your Heart Sing” and “Here Alone” feature strings by one of Nashville’s most highly regarded producers David Henry (Josh Rouse, Alison Krauss, REM) and New York based violinist Claudia Chopek (Ryan Adams, HEM) created the wonderful lilting arrangements on “NY Song” and “Live Your Life”. More of New York’s most outstanding musicians guest on some of the tracks. Superb drummer Matt Johnson (Jeff Buckley, Rufus Wainwright) adds his talent to the two full band tracks and the excellent guitarist Jim Campilongo (in Norah Jones’s The Little Willies) contributes his trademark Telecaster sound to the upbeat Americana track “When You Come Home”.

Lisa's two previous albums SLIPSTREAM and LOST AGAIN, have gained widespread glowing print reviews and received airplay on radio stations around the world. Her track ‘Dragonfly’ was featured on a ‘Best of British’ special on BBC Radio 2 which showcased the Best British songwriters. Lisa has also built a reputation as a compelling live performer and, along with many festival appearances, has opened for many respected artists including Kathryn Williams, Brian Kennedy, Chuck Prophet, Devon Sproule, Kate Campbell, Laura Veirs, Jesse Sykes, The Handsome Family, The Deadstring Brothers, Boo Hewerdine and The Arlenes.

On CLOUDS WITH SILVER, Redford dramatically fulfils the promise of her previous albums with her arresting vocals, refreshing melodic sound and reflective lyrics. "Like all my work, this album has been a real labour of love for me. From the writing and recording process to playing all the acoustic guitar and producing, I’ve been totally involved in every aspect" says Redford. "The songs are very contemplative and tinged with melancholy but, as the title reveals, they are full of hope and ultimately leave an uplifting and positive message." Already in 2008 she has played some of New York’s most prestigious acoustic venues and had one of her songs, the acclaimed ‘Dragonfly’, feature in an independent movie in LA. With the release of CLOUDS WITH SILVER, further testament to her talent, Redford's music is set to gain her an even bigger audience. Hers is striking music that is sorrowful and dreamy, but not simply for awash of studio atmosphere. Lisa’s songs, as well as her voice, have a tempered reverence that coats the sadness with an aura of beauty.
