From platinum record award winning songwriter Frank Simes and performing artist and songwriter Lisa Verlo comes a new collaboration of music for preschoolers, Turner's Treehouse. Focused on introducing children to the joys of music and movement, songs such as "Tap Your Feet" and "Move Your Body" offer an opportunity for interaction and excite participation in listeners of all ages. Lisa and Frank write and record songs for film and TV. After the birth of their son, Turner, they started a collection of music for children which they have just released as Turner’s Treehouse. Lisa and Frank are also combining their talents on a Broadway bound musical "The Door". Through collaboration, production and performance of their work, they seek to dramatize an insight of aesthetic and humanitarian purpose.

Lisa Verlo was born in Flint Michigan to a Norwegian father and a Midwestern mother. Being raised in Strasbourg France, Manila Philippines and the great plains of South Dakota, gave Lisa a broad perspective on culture and societal concerns which finds little reciprocated understanding in our mainstream voices. Attracting attention singing a capella in Los Angeles area coffee houses, Lisa was accepted into the Screen Actors Guild for writing and performing Right or Wrong in the feature film Under Surveillance. While recording more of her original works and playing out with an eclectic group of musicians, Lisa had two songs featured in the film "Galatea's Wish" on Showtime. Performing across the country promoting her Chap book "Pieces" and her self released album "Wayward Me", Lisa toured the coffee house 'circuit' between festivals and returned to LA to record a CD of spoken word and music, with Chris Millner, titled "Home". Lisa and Frank have been collaborating ever since he played guitar on, and subsequently produced her song "High Inside".
