LISA SIMONE at Baalbeck International Festival , Sunday August 21, 2016
Legendary singer Nina Simone's only child, Lisa Simone has found her own voice, embracing her musical talent. After an early career on Broadway where she was acclaimed for her roles, Lisa Simone covered her mother's repertoire with the album " Simone on Simone " and shared the stage with Diane Reeves, Angelique Kidjo and Lizz Wright.
She has now followed her own path as a recording artist with two original albums, "All is well" in 2014 and "My World " earlier this year. In early 2016, she was invited to sing in prestigious venues such as l'Olympia in Paris and the Montreux Jazz Festival. In Baalbeck, Lisa Simone will perform her own songs along classic cover songs for Nina Simone. She will certainly grace us with her presence as her mother once did at the Festival in 1998.
