Song stylist Trish Sisson, a native of New York City, grew up in Miami, Florida where she began singing for her supper at 16. From dinner theater, casino showrooms, cruise ship revues, street dances on flatbed trucks, piano bars, state & county festivals, corporate functions & most recently the social media screen, Trish is at home on any stage. She has performed with Barry Gibb, Nell Carter, Gloria Estefan & Freddie Hubbard, & has warmed up audiences for Ben Vereen, Don Rickles, Bob Newhart & Loretta Lynn to name but a few. A member of ASCAP, her lyrics can be heard on Tania Maria’s “Lady From Brazil” album, produced by George Duke, including the title cut. Her original song “Have a Heart” has been used to raise awareness about homelessness & poverty & for organizations like AIDSWalk Miami, Children’s Cancer Society, ARC Minnesota, & the Minnesota Visiting Nurse Association. Trish feels most at home in the intimate setting of the cabaret where the power of a great lyric can be fully appreciated. As a motivational entertainer, Trish brings joy, laughter, tears & hope to her audience as she explores the human experience through songs and stories.

“One of the hardest things to do is cast a good friend alongside professionals who don’t know the friend as i do. I’ve done this on numerous occasions with Trish Sisson, who on every occasion has not only blown the others away with her unmistakable musical skill and vocal prowess, but has simultaneously turned them into lifelong caring friends. Trish takes direction humbly and appreciatively, gives more emotional and spiritual support on and off stage than she herself requires, and always, ALWAYS hits it out of the ballpark.” Anthony Bollotta, President, Bollotta Entertainment, San Diego
