Lizzie No
Let's start with this: genre is a construct.
Lizzie No makes Americana music, in that their work pulls from the rhythms and traditions of Blues, Folk, and Country — not unlike Allison Russell, Rhiannon Giddens, and Adia Victoria, artists who share their musical orbit. But the comparisons only go so far. As a Queer, Black woman, their entire existence is a living, breathing, singing protest against a genre and a country that, on their best days, resist reckoning with the very foundations that built them.
Rolling Stone named Lizzie one of their Future 25 artists of the year. Their country ballad "The Heartbreak Store" was nominated for International Song of the Year at the Americana UK awards. Their acclaimed third album Halfsies arrived in 2024 on Thirty Tigers — a genre-defying concept record that traces a journey from exile to liberation through Blues, Folk, Country, and Indie. The Halfsies tour made stops all across the United States and Europe, including shows with Iron & Wine and Dispatch. In January 2025 they followed it with the live album Commie Country.
As cohost of the Basic Folk podcast, Lizzie has interviewed luminaries from across the roots music universe including Ben Harper, Molly Tuttle, Swamp Dogg, and Billy Bragg.
