The unflappable prize-winning singer-songwriter entertains with witty and insightful commentary on the absurdities of today’s complex society.

As she sings for seniors, Lu erases forever the stereotype of gray-haired frumps put out to pasture. She will make you laugh, she will make you cry…she’s therapeutic! She has been described as a cross between Erma Bombeck and Alan Sherman. She’s a funny gal who cocks a saucy, irreverent eye at our mad, mad, mad world, like a banshee zonked on truth serum!
