Rich Wyman & Lisa Needham are the captivating musical marriage between award-winning pianist, singer-songwriter, & producer Rich Wyman and singer-songwriter-storyteller Lisa Needham. This soul-stompin’ piano and vocally driven duo is a high-spirited live act that received standing ovations on their 2018 tour with the Grammy Award-winning Gipsy Kingsacross the USA and Canada and the prestigious ASCAP Music Cafe at the 2019 Sundance Music Festival.
Rich Wyman is an outstanding technical musician and songwriter who performs with a level of passion seldom seen. His collaboration with Rock and Roll Hall Of Famer Eddie Van Halen on Rich's album Fatherless Child led to Wyman topping European charts. Rich has won 10 ASCAP Awardsfor his catalog of original songs and he is an accomplished producer. Rich toured with Air Supply (piano and vocals) and shared the stage with Alanis Morrisette, Robert Palmer, The Goo Goo Dolls, and more. With powerful piano chops that evoke the intensity of Billy Joel and Ray Charles, and a gritty hurricane-of-a-voice like John Hiatt, Pounding the keys while using every note to his advantage, Wyman most definitely gives the piano its proper rock & roll due.
Lisa Needham developed her 3-octave range amidst the training ground of New York City nightclubs and cabarets. She has performed with the Utah Symphony and shared the stage and studio with her husband for over 30 years. Her versatile and electrifying vocal style is soulful and emotive, evoking a rich, powerful, and weighty quality reminiscent of Annie Lenox. Her ability to switch between different parts of her range with relative ease and skill offers up the warm and more feminine colored tones of her vocal spectrum comparable to KD Lang and Joni Mitchell. Needham’s voice is also replete with a ‘40s-style jazz sensibility that owns the stage with unique improvisational style & phrasing.
