Low Lily (www.LowLily.com)
This delightful trio from Vermont, U.S.A. is led by Liz Simmons, who came over from the States and played for us a few years ago, alongside Hannah Sanders. This time Liz is touring the UK with her new band and they are paying us a visit before heading off to play at the Maverick and Ely Festivals in July. Low Lily explore the roots and branches of American folk music, creating a unique brand of acoustic music that is rooted yet contemporary.
Liz Simmons (vocals, guitar), Flynn Cohen (vocals, guitar, mandolin) and Lissa Schneckenburger (vocals, fiddle), are masterful players, composers and arrangers with deep relationships to traditional music styles ranging from Bluegrass to Irish, Scottish, New England and Old Time Appalachian. These relatively young but well-seasoned musicians bring together their considerable strengths, experience and history to create an undeniably rich and versatile musical palette. Listen to wonderful harmonies and great playing at:
