Folk-Jazz singer Lilli Lewis grew up on a dirt road outside of Athens, GA where she has been writing music since the age of three. She is an award-winning singer/songwriter, a favorite among contemporary women's solo a cappella, a composer, an opera singer, and classical pianist, in no particular order of importance.As a solo artist Lilli has released six recordings, among which the first solo a cappella album, “Out From Yonder" won regional finalist for the acclaimed Mountain Stage Newsong Competition and runner up for "Best World/Folk Album" for the 2009 Contemporary A Cappella Recording Awards, and a main stage performer at SOJAM A Cappella Music Festival in 2009. "The sound is like a female Bobby McFerrin, but with lyrics one might expect from a group like Sweet Honey In The Rock." Jonathan Minkoff, rarb.org.
Her most recent recording, "The Promised Land" is a soulfully rendered collection of Spirituals from the African-American Folk tradition.http://www.cdbaby.com/lillilewis7. Lewis resides in Hammond, LA where she also performs with her indie-rock band, The Shiz.
