"Before you come alive, life is nothing; it is up to you to give it meaning. The same applies to art, and what freedom! Art should cause what Plato called "the source of all philosophy": surprise...making the unfamiliar familiar. So many of us roam the Earth half-awake, gliding through our years on the backs of routine, patterns, and daily monotony. People become numb to life and beauty and sounds. Once we leave convention, often through art, we see things freshly and life becomes vibrant again! There is a universality of music that transcends language and culture, uniting all people. 'Dare to disturb the universe.' A singer-songwriter from Hell's Kitchen, NYC, I am starved for stars, dream of silk sheets, and often wonder what the view is like from the moon. I play a beautiful Takamine guitar named "Prufrock," wear flip-flips through 'til winter, look directly into the sun (don't ask me why), and like holding buttercup flowers up to my chin. I could read "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" and "A Streetcar Named Desire" everyday. I love the smell of old books, leather, just-sanded wood, winter air and campfires. I love to laugh. I think heaven is here on earth, family and love are the most important things and I dare. Do you dare?" Lezane’s original Indie Rock music carries powerfully thoughtful lyrics alongside compositions that linger in your mind long after you’ve listened. Her versatile voice represents an array of genres from Jazz to R & B and Musical Theatre to Rock n’ Roll. Her stage presence is warm yet commanding, and her passion for live performance and theatre is always apparent. Among all else, her music and performance encompass the joy, awareness, and positive energy that is forever within. Lezane's debut, original album "Do I Dare?" was recorded live at The Record Company in Boston with fellow Berklee College of Music graduates.
