Born and raised in Texas, Lisa Peterson grew up surrounded and inspired by the rich musical traditions of her home โ rock, country, Latinx and folk. After the death of her mother in a tragic riding accident, her family left Texas and travelled the world. In those turbulent times, her guitar became her best friend, comforting her and making her feel home even in moments of deep despair. Music has taught her that no matter how dark things look in the world, you should never give up hope โ love and kindness will always triumph. Writing songs about the strength of friendship and sisterhood, she hopes her music will inspire people to believe that they can make a difference. Weโre all in this together!
Currently, Lisa resides in Jorvik where she tries to balance music with school, horse riding and volunteering in her community. Aside from her Texan roots, she finds inspiration for her music in her friends and in her horse and soulmate Starshine.
