After four decades of performing with icons like Mick Jagger and The Rolling Stones, Tina Turner, Chaka Khan, and Nine Inch Nails, Lisa Fischer is finally offering her own humble, heartfelt song, accompanied by her inventive new band Grand Baton.

The Grammy Award winning singer is bringing her show to the Concert Hall, Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC) for one night only on Friday 10 June 2016, as part of Queensland Cabaret Festival (QCF).

Her performance draws from an eclectic palette of influences. Hear her put her stamp on Led Zeppelin and Little Willie John, recast rock anthems from her tours with The Rolling Stones and Tina Turner and perform originals.

Grand Baton's organic fusion of African, Middle Eastern and Caribbean rhythms, psychedelic soul and progressive rock awakens and ignites Fischer's flexibility and freedom of expression.

Fischer's voice has powered albums and performed live for decades, for a constellation of music legends including but not limited to The Rolling Stones, Aretha Franklin, Nine Inch Nails, Bobby McFerrin, George Benson, Diana Ross, Laurie Anderson, Teddy Pendergrass, Dionne Warwick, Grover Washington, Billy Ocean, Melba Moore and Patti LaBelle.
