Lisa Keating is an international jazz vocalist, dynamic performer, and passionate advocate for the arts whose life and career are defined by a single, enduring mission: to translate the beauty she sees and feels into shared experience. Whether she is captivating an audience with her alluring voice and piano, curating a fine art exhibition, or championing the creative community she calls home, Lisa brings a warm, visionary energy to everything she touches.

 

A California native now rooted in the vibrant artistic community of Santa Fe, New Mexico, Lisa sings gentle jazz for a waiting world — performing originals and beloved standards in English, French, and Portuguese. Her voice has conjured comparasons to Natalie Cole and Stacy Kent and has been described as "a mellow and welcoming cup of coffee enjoyed on a Sunday morning." Her performances touted as intimate journeys through the Great American Songbook, jazz standards, Bossa Nova gems, and the works of Bacharach, Sondheim, and beyond.

 

Off the stage, Lisa serves as the Executive Director of the Santa Fe Gallery Association, where she is a tireless advocate for artists, gallerists, and the broader art community. She is currently in the studio recording an album of original music with an array of award-winning musicians, with plans to tour across the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Europe. ---
