A pianist, singer, and songwriter with a delicate, refined approach, Lisa Addeo's works span smooth jazz, vocal pop, and instrumental easy listening. She released her full-length debut, the Sinatra tribute In a Heartbeat, in 1997, followed by a mix of covers, original songs, and instrumental collections such as 2012's Whispering Souls. In 2020, she went all the way to number one on the Billboard Smooth Jazz Airplay chart with "Listen to This," the title track from her eighth studio album. After two more songs from the album reached the Top Ten, she had her fourth hit with "Deep Blue C" in 2022.
