Lilly Hiatt (born in 1984 in Los Angeles) is a Nashville, Tennessee based songwriter and performer.

Biography

Early career

Hiatt is the daughter of noted singer/songwriter John Hiatt and has played music since she was 12. After graduating from the University of Denver with a psychology major, she returned home to Nashville. She relocated briefly to Austin, Texas, but returned to Nashville in 2013.[2][3]

Bands

Hiatt's previous band, Shake Go Home, formed in Denver in 2005 while Hiatt was in school. After graduation, the band moved to Nashville and recorded several EPs. Band members included Hiatt, Eric Knutson (guitar), John Arrotti (drums), and Jeff Montoya (bass).[4]

Hiatt's band that she recorded her first two records with was called the The Dropped Ponies, and included guitarist Beth Finney, drummer Jon Radford, bass player Jake Bradley, and Luke Schneider on pedal steel.[1][5]

She used a brand new band on her album, Trinity Lane, due out in August of 2017.

Recordings

Hiatt's 2012 debut album Let Down was produced by Doug Lancio. Her rock song "Angry Momma" and the jangly "People Don't Change" were singled out as being especially good.[6]

Hiatt's second album Royal Blue was released in 2015 on the Normaltown label (an imprint of New West) and produced by Nashville producer Adam Landry (Deer Tick). She employed synthesizer as well as pedal steel, and broadened the scope of her style to reflect her musical influences.[7]

In 2016, at a mansion in East Nashville, the Luck Reunion organization gathered pairs of musicians to collaborate on songs for a series of 45 rpm singles recorded using analog equipment provided by Third Man Records. Hiatt together with Aaron Lee Tasjan recorded two songs: Guy Clark's "Dublin Blues and John Prine's "Angel from Montgomery" [8]

To be released in August of 2017, Hiatt's third album Trinity Lane was produced by Michael Trent of Shovels & Rope.[9]
