LISA MARIE PRESLEY: SINGER/SONGWRITER



Lisa Marie Presley has released her 3rd studio album out May 15, 2012, STORM & GRACE.  Getting back to American root music, this album is a subdued collection of bluesy rock n’roll songs with many shades of country undertones, produced by Grammy winning Producer T Bone Burnett.

The sultry alto with her slow seductive delivery of each number seems well suited to T Bone Burnett's traditional deep base, and heavy drum rhythms that brings us her best effort so far.

At the age of 44, Lisa Marie the mother of 4 (Oldest 22 year old daughter and the youngest 3 yr. old twins) is receiving good reviews for STORM & GRACE. After mediocre reviews, her previous albums never really made her out to be a rock n’roll diva as expected. The latest album seems more suited to her voice, and style of delivery.

Lisa Marie Says “ In this process of writing this record, I found a better bed for myself and my voice and my writing to lie in."

If nothing else, Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of the "King of Rock and Roll", Elvis Presley is a  reputable song writer, and humanitarian.

In October 1997, Presley along with friend and fellow Memphian Isaac Hayes, opened the Literacy, Education and Ability Program (LEAP). LEAP is a free program for children and people of all ages in Memphis, Tennessee. LEAP provides effective educational services and materials that help people learn how to learn and study effectively and thereby have the ability to achieve their goals and realize their full potential.
On January 5, 2002, Presley received the Humanitarian Award from the World Literacy Crusade for her efforts to help children across America learn valuable skills for study and improve their lives. Lisa Marie Presley received her award from Isaac Hayes, Chaka Khan and Yolanda King, daughter of the late Martin Luther King Jr
