“Going to a Lisa Henry jazz session is like spending an evening with a good friend. Henry’s stage presence makes you feel that you’ve known her for years. She is completely at home and on stage.”
–Mary Lusk

“She is beaming, radiant, and she has the presence of all great jazz singers. Her voice is warm and deep, her presence undeniable.”
–Express De Madagascar
“What strikes you immediately is Henry’s sound: solid but sly, clear but oh-so expressive. There’s always a smile lurking at the edges of her voice.”
–Chris Shull
