Though singer-songwriter, harpist and guitarist Lizzie No is working in a storied tradition of literary-minded songwriters, nobody on the roots music scene today sounds quite like them. 

The New York indie-folk artist became an instant public radio favorite with their 2017 debut album 'Hard Won,' and built a reputation as one of the genre's most distinct voices with the sonically versatile ‘Vanity’ in 2019. Their songcraft shone in rock clubs on tours with Adia Victoria, Son Little, Ron Pope and Sarah Shook & The Disarmers, as well as in classical collaborations with the Louisville Orchestra and the Downtown Chamber Series.

No’s extraordinary third studio album, 'Halfsies,' was released in 2024 by Thirty Tigers / the artist’s own label, Miss Freedomland. Rolling Stone named Lizzie one of their "Future 25" artists of the year, and queer country ballad "The Heartbreak Store" was nominated for International Song of the Year at the Americana UK awards. The record made numerous best-of-the year lists, notably in The Guardian, NPR, Stereogum, and Holler. 'Halfsies' also introduced No to audiences in Europe and the UK during tours with Iron & Wine, John Smith, and Darlingside.

Over the past ten years No has toured relentlessly, mesmerizing audiences with their take-no-prisoners stage presence whether solo or as a band. The far-left-of-center musical polymath has graced stages from the Newport and Cambridge folk festivals to Willie Nelson's Luck Reunion and Portland Jazz Fest. In January 2025 No released the live rock album 'Commie Country,’ featuring the culturally prescient “Banks of the Rio Grande.” Later that year they released the Y'allidarity Social Club podcast with cohost and fellow anti-capitalist songwriter Nathan Evans Fox. They served as board president for Abortion Care Tennessee and used their platform as a popular OnlyFans creator to speak out about the dangers of censorship. As a testament to No's ability to constantly reinvent roots music in their own image, they have been named a Nashville Scene Artist To Watch three times. 

Most recently Lizzie toured with Texas alt-country legends Old 97's and executive produced 'Outlaws' Almanac,' a roots compilation responding to America's 250th birthday in 2026, which Rolling Stone called a "People’s Songbook of the United States." This fall Lizzie No relocated to Dublin where they continue to make music and cohost the popular Basic Folk podcast while pursuing a master's degree in music and communications.
