Lisa Mann is a truly gifted performer out of Minnesota, and Lara Price is just plain talented and both are the true epitome of survivorship.....Mann was born in West Virginia, , United States. As a young child she and her sister, Maryann, were moved to Portland, Oregon, from California, as an escape from her abusive father. Somewhat inspired after hearing the bass line of the Imperial Guard music in Star Wars, Mann purchased her first bass guitar at age eleven.Lara Price is a survivor… Born in the war torn country of Vietnam in 1975 and abandoned at birth, Lara became a part of the controversial “Operation Baby Lift”, a mass evacuation of orphans from South Vietnam to the United States.As 90 percent of the orphaned babies did not survive, her journey out of Vietnam to her new home was nothing short of a miracle.
