Lizzy Ross Band

Chapel Hill's Lizzy Ross Band fuses jazz and folk music with dirty blues, rock and soul. Ross’ commanding, versatile, and expressive voice has been compared to such artists as Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Edie Brickell and Grace Potter. The band’s tight arrangements range from subtly complimentary to virtuosically explosive. Creating high energy, soulful music that is intelligent, danceable, and unique.

The Lizzy Ross Band includes Lizzy Ross on vocals and rhythm guitar, Dylan Shrader on electric guitar, Brett Hart on bass, and Drew Daniel on percussion.

In June 2010 Lizzy Ross released her debut solo album, Traces. Nominated for HGMN's (Home Grown Music Network) 2010 album of the year, Traces has been met with critical acclaim for the passion and “beautiful songwriting” it contains. The Lizzy Ross Band is currently recording and plan to release their debut album in October 2011, followed by a national radio campaign through HGMN.

"One of the highlights of the (ENO) festival was listening to the music of Lizzy Ross, from Chapel Hill. Kind of country but kind of not—"not" being the operative word, since I'm anything but a fan of country music. She's a most talented young singer and guitarist, with a unique sound and an excellent stage presence." -Mark Rainey, Greensboro NC Author and Blogger
