With the release of their new album ‘Angels in the Wreckage’, the American Roots band LOW LILY tours the northeast to share their brand new music with fans! Their Boston stopover will take place on Friday, June 30th @ 8 PM at Club Passim in Harvard Square, Cambridge. Tickets are available at: https://www.passim.org/live-music/
Low Lily’s trio lineup, Liz Simmons, Flynn Cohen, and Montana native Natalie Padilla, will be augmented with double bass, courtesy of Berklee College of Music graduate Hazel Royer. This quartet performance brings the energy of fiddle music, the introspection contemporary folk, the precision of Bluegrass, the drive of Americana, and combines all these elements into one stunning soundscape.
With a vocal blend that has been dubbed “outstanding” and “meticulous,” Low Lily has crafted a signature sound which they have shared 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. Since then they have released a handful of singles, but their second full-length album was delayed due to the pandemic, so they are thrilled to finally announce its release.

Low Lily’s core founding members are married couple Liz Simmons and Flynn Cohen, who welcomed Natalie Padilla from Bozeman, MT as the newest member of the band last summer, after founding member Lissa Schneckenburger amicably parted ways with the band. The members of Low Lily are currently based in Brattleboro, VT and Northampton, MA.
New band member Natalie Padilla's world-class fiddle-playing is versatile- she has won fiddle championships in multiple styles, including bluegrass, Old Time, and Texas fiddle. Her sweet, clear voice blends beautifully with Cohen’s and Simmons’ in close three-part harmony– a major feature of their new music.

With “Angels in the Wreckage”, produced by banjo legend Dirk Powell, Low Lily’s sound has veered more assuredly towards the roots of American music, though the original folk songs that are the hallmark of Low Lily’s sound remain at the fore, as they tackle such complex topics as love, loss, hope, justice, family heritage, and environmental destruction.
