A singer's singer. Put on the headphones, turn out the lights, and prepare to have your spine tingled and your spirit transported. Lisa Moscatiello is an extraordinary song interpreter with a voracious appetite for unusual and emotionally potent songs. Her three solo albums are a joyous foray into the high country of contemporary folk, acoustic pop , Jazz, and timeless folk ballads from Celtic, American and European traditions. Sprinkled throughout are Moscatiello's own finely-crafted and moving original songs.
"Lisa Moscatiello will inevitably remind some listeners of another Washington, DC-area singer, the late Eva Cassidy. Like Cassidy, she has a throaty voice that is both pure and sultry. She's equally comfortable with bluesy belters or aching torch songs, and she has an alluring ability to insinuate deep emotions without ever seeming to be showing off her vocal chops. But an even more important comparison is that, just like Cassidy, Moscatiello makes us believe every word she sings."
