Lisa Mitchell 'Wonder'

Lisa Mitchell Wonder
Aug 9, 2009 Updated Aug 9, 2009

The debut release from this 19 year old Albury singer-songwriter.

Shrugging off defeat in the 2006 series of Australian Idol, Lisa's songwriting skills and distinctive voice eventually earned her an overseas record contract.

Reviews Elsewhere:

"Wonder is a collection of impressionistic pop tracks: tremulous percussion, central piano rhythms and winsome acoustic guitar form the foundation, although it’s produced up with the kind of Scandinavian glimmer heard on records like Lykke Li’s Youth Novels." - The Vine

"...what really sets Wonder apart from other cutesy-pop records in it’s spectrum is the way it manages to avoid falling into a sickly sweet trap of embellished overproduction, and instead allowing Mitchell's gorgeous voice to take centre stage and fill the gaps" - Sputnik Music
