Lissie, born and raised beside the Mississippi River in the heartland, is a truly Midwestern, nature- and solitude-loving girl whose musical path started in high school with a guitar and skills self-taught. Performances at coffee shops in her hometown and Chicago, IL, soon progressed to open mics and regular gigs in Fort Collins, CO, and in Paris, France. Eventually, Lissie landed in the Los Angeles area, where she first sold honey at farmers' markets to support herself and also helped to create the 'Beachwood Rockers' Society', a weekly music residency in Hollywood. She has toured with Badly Drawn Boy, among others, as well.
Lissie will open for Ray LaMontagne on select dates this November, with more touring news to be announced soon. Her current itinerary is below.
