Do you hava dollar, do you havva dollar?

When you wake up singing the songs to a band you heard the night before, you know its been a memorable experience.



Little lisa mitchell, quaint and polite, quiet and beautiful. The 20 year old, english born/australian bread singer has bursted into the Australian music scene after releasing her debut album, Wonder in 2009. Her wonderfully evocative lyrics and playful melodies float around in your head... light and airy, picturesque and pretty.

With a definite appeal to a female audience, the crowd was gentle and happy to sit on the floor until Lisa entered the stage. During the song "Coin Laundry" which Lisa sings, "do you hava dollar, do you havva dollar?" the crowd threw dollar coins up onto the stage... how cute!!! She was backed by a 7 piece band all boasting individual styles and attitudes.



Her vintage outfit, introverted personality and vocal style shouts Julia Stone! and she could pass for her younger sister. The perfect music to listen to while lying in a field of daisies on a warm summer day. -BR
