MusicRowPics: Lisa Matassa Artist Visit

Long Island, NY’s own Lisa Matassa recently stopped by MusicRow‘s headquarters to perform a few songs for the staff and talk about her musical journey.

Matassa is a mother of two who grew up loving Loretta Lynn and Debbie Boone, but made her first foray into the music business with a couple of dance-pop singles for Emergency Records at the age of 19. She left the music business for a few years to raise a family, but has returned to lay it on the line and tell the world about her own brand of Long Island country.

Matassa performed selections from her debut album Sunrise Highway (It Is What It Is Records), including “Somebody’s Baby,” “Learning As You Grow,” and the sassy “Wouldn’t You Like To Know.” The Nine North Records team led by Larry Pareigis is heading up promotional efforts at country radio.
