Lisa Bianco & The Fury to Open for Rick Springfield at the Paramount Theater

Online, July 30, 2012 (Newswire.com) - In support of her successful EP release, Momentum, and following their recent blow-out shows at the historic Webster Hall in NYC and the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ, multi-talented singer/ songwriter/electric guitarist Lisa Bianco & The Fury will be opening for Rick Springfield at the popular Paramount Theater in Huntington, Long Island, NY on Friday, August 3, 2012, at 8:30 PM. A performer known for "rockin' the house" wherever she appears, Lisa will be playing songs at The Paramount from Momentum, a collection of original tunes that preview and showcase her many amazing talents.

"Combining down and dirty electrics with addictive, . . . sweet melodies, Bianco once again squeezes the proverbial rock and roll mainstream juice into her cup of bratty punk snarl and the results are a big, bold
. . . compositional passion and vision."-John Pfeiffer, The Aquarian Weekly

Native New Yorker Lisa Bianco issued her highly anticipated EP release, Momentum, in November of 2011, and re-issued an enhanced mix version with improved packaging in June of 2012. In the wake of its successful release she was selected to join the artist roster of Daisy Rock Guitars® along with other notable artists such as Amanda Palmer of Dresden Dolls, The Veronicas, Avril Lavigne and Hayley Williams of Paramore. Momentum showcases Lisa's songwriting, singing and electric guitar playing to her great advantage. Every tune on the EP reflects her well developed artistry and her uncanny knack for great melodies, engaging lyrics and hook-laden guitar riffs. And Lisa isn't afraid to pull out the stops in her live performances with a high-energy show that features a determined yet rich voice that's seductive and impossible to resist, great songs and energetic, tasteful guitar playing. Her shows are great fun and erase the distance between artist and audience.

"[A] unique style which includes Lisa's impressive guitar chops and infectious, hard driving melodies."
-Tiffany Razzano, The Queens Chronicle

Lisa has developed her unique and compelling sound by paying serious dues; that is, by playing countless live shows over the past several years. Momentum is the culmination of that rigorous yet creative and fruitful journey, and once heard it becomes evident that Lisa is an artist who has matured exquisitely. Her songs are contagious and well crafted and Lisa's voice is undeniable, yet words are often not enough to describe talent such as this. The proof lies simply in experiencing Lisa Bianco on Momentum or in one of her electrifying live performances and letting nature take its course.
