Her deep, rich, soothing voice gains her new fans at every show. Barbra is featured regularly on radio stations across the country despite the fact that she’s only started to record her debut CD. Lica was featured on two hit singles for other artists; “You’re Gonna Miss Me” by Joe Sealy & Paul Novotny and “Baby I’m A Fool” by David Statham. She is being touted as the next big thing by just about anybody who has seen her.
