Big Shiny Robot -Interview
"I had the pleasure of speaking with the lovely and talented Lisa Hammer while she was in town working on the "SLC Punk" sequel "Punk's Dead." We spoke about her career in music, movies, and television, shock humor, the healing power of laughter, and child shark hunters, among other things. You can find Lisa on Twitter at @LadyLisaTerror, on Facebook at "The Sisters Plotz," and at lisahammer.com" 
"It seems like stand-on-their-own pop-rock records come along with the frequency of Halley’s Comet. So, it must be 76 years since the last one, ’cause here it is."

"Filmmaker, musician, and actress Lisa Hammer spoke to us about her awesome life. From her very early films made possible by editing video for an s&m company to her career as a medieval shoegaze singer and so much more!"

POX : Quit Your Screamin’ and Start Streamin’!
"Listen up! ‘Cause in case you haven’t heard . . . The movie POX...Written and directed by the wildly talented, wicked creative, and impressively prolific singer / song-writer / musician / thespian / all-around Uh-Huh, Don’t-You-Wish-You-Were-Her phenomenonicon Miss Lisa Hammer" -- By Clint Catalyst |
"Guy and John are joined by directors/actors Levi Wilson and Lisa Hammer to talk about their endeavors, including the new Maybe Sunshine webseries"
|
"I was walking around Shock Pop and looked to my Left and saw a picture of Triana Orpheus from the Venture Bros cartoon. I was like I know that and saw a woman standing there. So I went over and asked if she did the voice and she did and that's how I met Lisa Hammer who on all accounts kicks ass. She is a musician and a filmmaker and that's all wins in my book. Check her site and music."

"While the concept of combining a real life rock band (notable examples being The Beatles and The Monkees) with a fictional narrative in movies and TV shows is nothing new, MAYBE SUNSHINE is probably the only web series in existence that manages to do both. For Wilson, both its expansive scope of production, and its ambition to mix great music with uproarious comedy, are what truly sets his series apart from the rest."

Lisa on the Hello Sweetie Podcast!
"Cherri interview’s special guest Lisa Hammer about her music career, life on public access television, her film career, and of course, voicing Triana Orpheus on the hilarious animated TV show Venture Bros!!!" |
"Lisa & Levi screened an episode of their web series "Maybe Sunshine" with us at Web Series Month in September 2015 and won the Audience Contest Award. We got to chat with them about the real-life inspiration behind the series and what we can expect from other episodes. " |
"Lisa Hammer: I feel free when I am singing, and I feel most at home when I’m either on stage or in the studio. I love the feeling of going into a trance when writing music, it’s a very spiritual experience. I also love the weird things that happen, at shows and on tour, they make for great stories!"
|
"There will always be somebody who’s work stands out amongst the rest of the rest of the rest. And that woman is without a doubt the brilliant musician and filmmaker Lisa Hammer. She has been grinding the gears of the weird for several decades, creating some of the finest underground works to date." -Trainwreck'd Society |
GREAT review from MTM Magazine: -read review- "Radiana have released an irresistable, catchy, power-pop, punk-infused, thematic single There’s Only Person (I Hate More Than You), now on CD Baby, Spotify, and Apple Music."... |
"You’ve created an amazing, voluminous body of highly distinctive work, and I am fairly dazzled... One could point out might be a greater darkness, almost nihilism in your sensibility which I relate to and also identify with many artists our age. “Grunge-iness” for lack of a better word, deriving a lot of humor and freedom from bringing an irreverent “fuck it” to many aspects of the process. Maybe I’m tipping my hand a little, but them’s the beginnings of how I would grope toward describing your work."

"Today we discuss the passing of Philip Seymour Hoffman, the Oscars, Jurassic World and have interviews with film director/musician/voice actor/all-around-talented Lisa Hammer, as well as the newest member to All Things Geeks crew, Kasey Pierce!" |
