Lisa loeb出生于1968年3月11日，女唱作歌手，来自美国德州达拉斯，她是第一个拥有全美冠军单曲的无约艺人。
大多数乐迷接触到这位来自德州达拉斯的女唱作歌手，都是从她于1993年受演员好友Ethan Hawke(伊森霍克)之邀为电影「四个毕业生」所创作的清新主题曲"Stay"开始，而此曲也一鸣惊人的蝉联全美流行榜3周冠军，使得她成为第一个拥有全美冠军单曲的无约艺人。随后发行的首张专辑「Tails」以结合清新的民谣流行曲风与精练的抒情叙事手法广受乐迷喜爱，销售突破金唱片，更勇夺全英音乐奖「最佳国际新进艺人奖」以及获得葛莱美奖「最佳流行重唱组合」的提名。1997年的专辑「Firecracker」再度荣获葛莱美奖提名，单曲"I Do"亦打入Top 20，2002年则加盟音乐名厂A&M发表「Cake And Pie」。
为了迎接正式出道十周年，Lisa Loeb发表了这张全新创作专辑「The Way It Really Is」。这张新作网罗John Shanks (Sheryl Crow、Melissa Etheridge)、Stephanie Bentley (Faith Hill)、Shelley Peiken (Christina Aguilera、Brandy)、Billy Steinberg (Madonna、The Pretenders)、Jimmy Harry (Moby、Kylie Minogue)、Bob Clearmountain (Paul McCartney、The Rolling Stones)等幕后制作大将连袂打造，开场曲"Window Shopping"在轻描淡写的蓝调吉他拨弦牵引下，让人感受到不太一样的Lisa Loeb。而整张专辑中，那种聪颖、自省、流畅的阳光Folk-Pop/Folk-Rock歌曲创作依旧是Lisa Loeb的强项，更值得留意的是，不少歌曲的表现手法上强化了Band Sound的感觉，好比讨喜程度足以媲美昔日Britpop气息的"I Control The Sun"、首支单曲"Fools Like Me"以及爽朗得有如当年Sleeper等Female-Fronted Band作品的"Probably"都是例子。
至于以简约Acoustic手法表现的慢板作品同样动人，色调低回深沉的"Hand-Me-Downs"描写一段受挫的感情关系，略带感伤的钢琴小品"Try"其实透露出积极正面的人生观，还有"Would You Wander"邀得经典民谣组合Indigo Girls主唱Emily Saliers跨刀献声。
If she had never made another record, Lisa Loeb would still go down in the record books as the first unsigned artist to top the American charts; her single Stay － from the soundtrack to 1994s Reality Bites － spent three weeks at number one soon after the films release. Born in Dallas, Loeb studied piano as a child but later switched to guitar. At Brown University, she studied music theory and played as a duo with her roommate, Elizabeth Mitchell (who went on to indie favor with Ida). After college, she attended Bostons Berklee School of Music for one semester, but then formed a full band in 1990, christened (in tribute to J.D. Salinger) Nine Stories: Tim Bright on guitar, Jonathan Feinberg on drums, and Joe Quigley on bass.
Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories began to gig around the Midwest, playing at Austins South by Southwest seminar. Loeb then hooked up with producer Juan Patiño, and in early 1992 released the cassette-only Purple Acoustic Tape, which she sold at live shows. Several major labels showed interest in her, but Loeb remained unsigned by late 1993, when her friend Ethan Hawke asked her to contribute a song for his next picture. Director Ben Stiller decided that he liked one of Loebs other songs even better, so Stay was inserted on the soundtrack. Released as a single in May 1994, it reached number one two months later and eventually sold over 750,000 copies worldwide. Loeb & Nine Stories received a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Performance by a Group, and won a Brit Award for Best International Newcomer. Geffen Records, which had shown interest in Loeb before Stay, signed her later in 1994 and re-teamed her with Juan Patiño. Her debut album Tails was released just over a year after her signing, and proved successful with commercial radio as well. Firecracker appeared in 1997, scoring a hit with I Do. Tours with the Wallflowers and Chris Isaak followed later that summer, as well as a stint with Lilith Fair.
Five years later, Loeb returned with a third effort and her debut for A&M, Cake and Pie. She co-produced the album and collaborated with an impressive cast, which included Glen Ballard, boyfriend Dweezil Zappa, Randy Scruggs (Vince Gill, Sawyer Brown, Waylon Jennings), and Peter Collins (Bon Jovi, the Indigo Girls). First single The Way It Really Is was a moderate hit among college radio; We Could Still Belong Together was also included on the soundtrack to Legally Blonde. In mid-2002, Loeb inked a deal with Artemis. She relaunched Cake and Pie under the title Hello Lisa, which featured Sanrios signature Hello Kitty artwork on the cover, that November. The Sanrio/Loeb union proved fruitful, as it coincided with the cutesy characters popularity boom in trendy Hollywood.
For her next trick, Loeb reunited with old college pal Elizabeth Mitchell for the childrens music album Catch the Moon; it featured a pleasant mix of traditionals and originals. In January 2004, Dweezil & Lisa premiered on The Food Network. It followed Zappa and Loeb in the daily lives as rockers and food lovers. Although it didnt include the single of the same name, The Way It Really Is was the title of Loebs 2004 album, her first for the Zoe label. The Very Best of Lisa Loeb first saw release in 2005 in Japan, and then early the next year in the rest of the world.
