Lise Winne is a respected award winning musician and singer/songwriter and is a member of 2 bands, Saratoga Faire (Celtic, folk, originals) and The Spirites Consort (cross-over music which includes fresh interpretations of Renaissance, classical and folk covers as well as originals which defy easy categorization). She also occasionally plays in a duo with Jim Lestrange (who plays hammered dulcimer, bass, guitar and is a songwriter). She released 4 CDs since 1996 and is currently at work with her band, Saratoga Faire, on a new CD. Her CDs include Christmastime (1996), Come To Me In Dreams (1998), Wing’d With Hopes: New Interpretations of Renaissance Songs (2001) and The Goldenrod (2004). Musicians from The Spirites Consort were heavily featured on both the Wing’d with Hopes and The Goldenrod CDs. For more information about her albums, click here.

Lise Winne began playing guitar at age 10. She was also a voracious reader and prolific writer and, in the beginning, had designs on being a novelist, poet, essayist and lyricist. During the time she attended college, she entered some creative writing contests at a writer's conference and received top awards in poetry and fiction from such renowned writers as William Bronk (National Book Award winner) and Paul Auster (well-known screenwriter, novelist and poet). Afflicted with severe asthma, Lise never thought that a career as a singer would ever be a possibility, however after many years of treatment, a path became possible.

She started out as a solo act performing a wide assortment of genres from classical to acoustic rock in 1993. After recording numerous demos of every category of music imaginable from 1996 – 1999 (the best of these recordings making it onto the “Come To Me In Dreams” album), she decided to change course. Her preferred direction was to create recordings based on a theme that would add something new and challenging to the field of music. For the first effort, she wanted to feature her classical and folk backgrounds. The union of classical music with folk music turned her in the direction of the music of the Renaissance era. This eventually culminated after many years with her “Wing’d With Hopes” album, a recording that sounds very much like a folk album on some tracks and very classical on others and somewhere in-between on most. Her latest album, “The Goldenrod”, is even harder to categorize and has elements of jazz, folk, new age, and Renaissance. This is the album that showcases her abilities as a lyricist and composer and brings into play her creative writing experience.
