ABOUT LISA:
Picture a fusion of Bette Midler, Lily Tomlin, and Joan Jett... and you’ve got Lisa Koch. An irreverent Seattle singer/comedian, Koch (pronounced “Coke”) is a deliciously twisted mix of comedy, theater, and demented songs. She has four solo recordings, is one-half of the hilarious sketch-comedy duo Dos Fallopia (album: My Breasts Are Out of Control), and is an alumnus of cult quartet Venus Envy (album: I'll Be A Homo for Xmas).

Lisa has shared the stage with a diverse group of artists, including Steve Martin, Dave Brubeck, Janis Ian, Laura Love, Kate Clinton, and Suzanne Westenhoefer. She performs regularly on Olivia Cruises, and has been seen on LOGO. She produces, writes, and performs all over the globe, and has been a featured act at the National and Michigan Women's Music Festivals, Bumbershoot, and the Vancouver Comedy Festival.

Lisa has co-written such warped shows as "The Carpeters: Uncomfortably Close To You," “Two’s Company, I’m a Crowd,” "Deja Poo" and “Ham for the Holidays: Swine, Women and Song.” She also finds time to work as an actor, appearing in "The Vagina Monologues,” "Dirty Blonde,” and as the Wicked Witch of the West in “The Wizard of Oz” (5th Ave Theatre). She is touring her one-woman cabaret show, “Return to Planet Lisa,” and is the composer of an Off-Broadway musical about Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas (“27, rue de Fleurus”). Lisa’s latest CD Tall Cool Drink contains the viral hit, “I’m a Middle-Aged Woman.”
