  <bio>Wendy &amp; Lisa are a musical duo consisting of Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman. Perhaps best known for working with Prince in the 1980s, Melvoin and Coleman began their post-Revolution music career in 1986. They have released five full-length albums of their own, the most recent release being White Flags of Winter Chimneys, released in December 2008.

They currently score the music for the NBC series Heroes and Showtime&#8217;s Nurse Jackie as well as the upcoming Melrose Place and Mercy. They have also been featured on several released soundtracks and scores, the most recent of which is the full-length Heroes: Original Score, released in April 2009 and comprised entirely of Wendy &amp; Lisa's full-length compositions for each of the show's characters.

Wendy &amp; Lisa&#8217;s alternative sound (which is a hybrid of alternative/funk/jazz/electronica/classical piano) that was born on Eroica and further developed on &#8220;Girl Bros&#8221; is more fully developed on their most recent album release, White Flags of Winter Chimneys. White Flags marked Wendy &amp; Lisa&#8217;s first album in ten years and was described by Wendy as &#8220;their best work.&#8221;

Unlike their previous albums, White Flags was released completely independently. While the initial release was solely through their website, the album was subsequently released via retail channels (such as iTunes, Amazon.com and the like). During interviews, Wendy &amp; Lisa have commented on how they felt pressured by record executives to put out music more reminiscent of Prince&#8217;s music and cite their first two albums as examples. Similar to their more recent work (Eroica and Girl Bros), all music, lyrics, and instruments on White Flags of White Chimneys are written and performed by Wendy &amp; Lisa.</bio>
