Anything But Easy’, Lisa's most radio-friendly single yet, is the first enticing taste of her upcoming EP ‘Edge of Love.’ Produced by José McGill from award-winning group The Vagaband, the five self-written songs feature beautiful arrangements and instrumentation performed by a host of the finest musicians; pedal steel player Alan Cook (My Darling Clementine, Chris Hillman of The Byrds), Noel Dashwood of acclaimed folk trio Alden, Patterson and Dashwood and award-winning cellist Ivan McCready (The Pretenders, Blur, John Cale, George Michael).
“A catchy, melodic song with heartfelt vocals, reminiscent of Emmylou Harris, the beautifully shot video is a perfect accompaniment to the original song.” Country Lowdown
“Lisa Redford has a wonderful voice and writes songs that can melt your heart, and this comes together perfectly in this new single – a perfect slice of Americana/Country that you can enjoy as we begin to move into spring.” Belles and Gals
“It is a great country track with a good strong beat and a catchy chorus that you will want to sing along to." Stephpar's Song A Day
"Anything But Easy opens with a stunning first verse which opens the song wonderfully - there is something so special and unique about Lisa’s vocals and song-writing abilities from the off. The chorus of Anything But Easy allows you to paint your own picture in your head based on your own past relationships. It bought me to tears quiet a few times. The beautiful instrumental throughout make the song connect perfectly especially with the second verse allowing the lyrics to shine through. The final verse of Anything But Easy is very strong and the lyrics are relatable when it comes to being in a relationship and with the thought of letting go of a relationship being so difficult even though you know it’s the best thing to do. Anything But Easy is a very special and unique song that showcases Lisa’s incredible vocals wonderfully." Bring Country 2 the UK
“cracking new single” Russ Hill Country

lyrics
Take my hand, don’t let it go
In your eyes, all I need to know
I just don’t understand what made you change your mind
I hold you close, feel you pull away
Under a spell, too hard to break
I wish I had the strength to say goodbye this time
And I know that I’ve been here before
Always left wanting more
Loving you, is anything but easy
Loving you..ooh ooh
Loving you, is anything but easy
And I know, I know that it’s so hard - to let go
All the plans I thought we’d made
Still inside, the words I meant to say
I’ll never know how you could let this slip away
Whatever made you have a change of heart
Was so good at the start
Loving you, is anything but easy
Loving you..ooh ooh
Loving you, is anything but easy
And I know, I know that it’s so hard - to let go
I never thought that I would feel this strong, was I so wrong to fall?
How something oh so good could hurt so bad, we could’ve had it all
Loving you, is anything but easy
Loving you..ooh ooh
Loving you, is anything but easy
And I know, I know that it’s so hard
And I know, I know that it’s so hard to let go
Let go
Let go
Let go

Rosie Thomas is a wonderful female singer/songwriter. Her music is so moving and With Love is another gorgeous heartfelt album. She is a big inspiration to me as I also write songs from the heart. Lisa Redford
I saw Denison a few years back playing with, and supporting Rosie Thomas and he is an incredible songwriter. Definitely evokes melodic warmth as the description says and deserves to be a bigger name. Lisa Redford
Always been a big fan of Martin since he was in Gene and this new album is moving, powerful, beautiful and one of my favourites from last year. Lisa Redford
supported by 5 fans who also own “Anything But Easy”
Four super songs from Sarah; all beautifully structured, sung and produced. There's a real brooding intensity to the messages built into these tracks – feelings that aren't quickly forgotten. Michael Reilly
