’60s Magic Now! gathers the poet, singer, improviser, political observer, and intuitive reader into a single project....Poetry taught her to hear cadence and silence. Jazz taught her to respond in real time. Singing taught her to trust physical expression. Her work as an intuitive reader taught her how to ground a room and pay attention to what sits beneath the obvious. Those disciplines converge on her eighth album.

The project reimagines a group of 1960s songs through soul-jazz, funk, Latin grooves, hip-hop, rock, folk, and spoken word. Its source material is recognizable, but Lisa’s method is personal and analytical.

Her intuitive practice also informs the record’s larger purpose. Lisa speaks about music as an alternate reality that listeners can enter, one capable of helping them retune. The idea can sound abstract, but the album expresses it concretely through groove, character, language, and communal performance.

“Dear Mr. Fantasy” captures that synthesis in miniature: an old song becomes a space for new voices to listen, respond, and imagine their way forward.
