–Roots Music Report

"[Low Lily has] an incredible knack for putting a little pop twist on a traditional folk/Americana sound... it's a blend that works beautifully."
–PopMatters
NEW American Roots band Low Lily celebrates the Solstice! This high energy show will feature instrumentals alongside impeccably arranged songs to honor the season. Between them, the musicians play mandolins, guitars, fiddle, banjo, and sing in three part vocal harmonies.
With the release of their new record 'Angels in the Wreckage' (produced by Dirk Powell), the New England-based band LOW LILY brings their infectious sound to a new level. With the energy of fiddle music, the introspective quality of contemporary folk, the precision of bluegrass, and the drive of Americana, the members of Low Lily combine their individual talents into one stunning soundscape.
Low Lily has shared their signature sound with enthusiastic audiences throughout North America and the UK, garnering two #1 songs on international folk radio and two Independent Music Award wins. In 2018, the band released a full-length album with 2X award-winning title track "10,000 Days Like These" and their original song "Hope Lingers On", which has been sung by choirs around the world as an anthem for peace and justice.
