Lisa Dotolo was born and raised in Westerly, Rhode Island and is a graduate of Providence College.  She has since moved to Nashville, TN from Rochester, N.Y. to pursue her singing career and gift of music. Lisa is working to have an international music career and to share her talent with the world.

Lisa started her singing career at the age of 3 in the church with her mother Sandra, cantoring the Catholic mass as well as singing in the local church folk group.  Lisa also started to write songs as a young girl and continues to write many different styles of music. 

As a young girl, she acted in several community theatre productions in upstate New York as well as school musicals and dramas both in high school and college.  Her love for the stage and acting is as passionate as her love for live musical performance.  She hopes to one day pursue her love for the theatre, on Broadway and produce as well as act in a musical she has already begun to write and record.

Currently, Lisa performs in coffee shops, both in Nashville and in the northeast as well as area feativals, nursing homes and churches.

Influenced by Olivia Newton John, Sarah Mclaughlin, Jewel, Natalie Merchant, Shania Twain, Eva Cassidy and Madonna, her monthly shows at Caffeine’s continue to draw a large crowd while maintaining an intimate setting; a venue Lisa enjoys most.

When Lisa is home visiting in Rochester, N.Y. she continues to cantor the Catholic Mass for long-term care patients and is one of the liturgical music directors for Monroe Community Hospital.

Other interests include Yoga and Yoga Instruction, Water Fitness and Water Fitness Instruction as well as reading and going to the movies.  Lisa also writes poetry and hopes to publish her poems for all to enjoy. 

Lisa would like to thank the Nashville Community and her friends and family for their continued support of her music and her dreams. She is grateful to be surrounded by such a wonderful group of talented artists and writers and wishes continued success and happiness to all of them.
