One of Lisa’s favourite songs is called Butterfly, which Erk features on episode 2. The song is a slick bossa nova song that profits hugely from the singer’s signature three-octave vocals. While she currently calls Dubai home, she still visits Australia from time to time. Dubai is a perfect base for Lisa to tour and perform in Europe. Lisa features as the non pop/rock artist on episode 2 of Insomnia Radio: Australia and appears courtesy of Ariel Publicity.
