About the episode

This week on Great Australian Lives, Craig Willis chats with powerhouse vocalist – Lisa Edwards. Lisa Edwards is a staple of the Australian music scene, having proved her prowess as a session singer, solo artist and musician for almost half a century. Edwards is primarily a backing vocalist, sharing the stage with high-profile Australian and international acts including Kylie Minogue, Stevie Wonder, Natalie Cole, Ray Charles, Olivia Newton-John, Barbara Streisand, Al Green, Sting, Bryan Adams, Hall & Oates, Cindy Lauper, Lenny Kravitz, Yoko Ono, Tom Jones, Toto, Noiseworks, and more. Known primarily as a backing singer, most notably alongside John Farnham, Edwards’ powerful voice saw her become a seasoned solo artist in her own right, with three studio albums under her belt, a top 5 hit, ARIA Award nominations, and recognition as a lifetime Australia Day Ambassador for her contribution to the Australian music scene and tireless charity work.
