Lisa O'Kane Announces July 2005 Tour of British Isles

NASHVILLE, TN. (www.lisaokane.com) - Lisa O'Kane has announced the final schedule for her upcoming month-long tour of the British Isles. The lovely Lisa will have a chance to see London's famous Tower, the Blarney Stone and plenty of kilts July 3- 30 as she tours England, Ireland and Scotland in support of her current CD, PEACE OF MIND.
Also, the lucky winner of Lisa's website contest (www.lisaokane.com for details) will have the chance to meet the soaring soprano backstage at the Americana International Festival in Newark, Nottingham prior to her July 9 performance.

The July dates run the gamut from popular nightclubs to her debut performance at the Americana International Festival's 25th anniversary to intimate theatre settings, and O'Kane is thrilled with the variety of venues. "My fans come from all walks of life, and these diverse settings will allow me to connect with a wide range of music lovers," says Lisa.

Music lovers love Lisa O'Kane. The California native has a sterling record of No 1 records, five successful Euro tours, impressive sales and endless media coverage to her credit. But, she credits her fans, including radio programmers and the media, with her rise to fame. "I could not have reached this level of success on my own," says Lisa. "I've had worldwide support."
