Her voice is silky smooth and pitch control seemingly effortless. Lisa Shaw has several big hits under her belt, includingLet it Ride, Free, Music in You, Like I Want To, Honey, Always.

Bust A Move: Disco Tanssi!
How many different styles of dance moves can you point out on any given dance floor?
We’ve all got our styles, from full body sweeping the dance floors, classic aerobic hop moves to the more conservative body swayers with the one, two steps. Dancing is a feeling, an expression translated in response to the music in our ears. As music is ever evolving, paired with the fact that we each bring...

Sweet Tears- "What We Gonna Do Right Here Is Go...
Time flies when you’re having fun. If Taboo’s note on Sweet Tears didn’t make you feel all warm and fuzzy, let me try. Stemming from a couple of one-off classic house parties at B-LO, ‘Sweet Tears’ was born.
