Lissa's Song by Luke Winslow-King & Roberto Luti

[Michael Messer]

Playing For Change: We're proud to share this heartfelt performance from our dear friends Luke Winslow-King and Robert Luti. "Lissa's Song" is a musical tribute written by Luke and Roberto that honors the life of the late "Washboard" Lissa Driscoll, a New Orleans street singer and former wife of Roberto, who touched the lives of countless people through her one-of-a-kind country-blues renditions. Let this song remind us to cherish each and every day and to appreciate all the beauty life has to offer.

Sad sentiments behind great music, the live stuff in Italy I have watched a lot. Luke has his own accompanist on the washboard and when the three get going it is great stuff.

I have played at a few festivals in Italy where Luke and I have both been playing, but so far haven't bumped into each other. Roberto, I remember meeting when he was a teenager just getting going. I think that was in Livorno. They are both talented artists.
