Lizzy’s fourth album New Lady on the Prairie (produced by John Reischman and Lizzy Hoyt) demonstrates a mature and refined ‘trans-Atlantic’ sound that blends influences from Celtic, bluegrass and folk traditions. The title track, inspired by Lizzy’s great great aunt immigrating to Canada from Ireland in the early 1900s, demonstrates her ability to craft songs that are touching, poignant, and lyrically rich.

Her arrangements are detailed and atmospheric, and her talents as a multi-instrumentalist are featured in spades. Lizzy is a full-time musician who travels and tours throughout the year. Versatility, excellent musicianship, high energy, story-telling and the ability to connect with audiences are hallmarks of her live show and have gained her a reputation as a first-rate performer in Canada and abroad. Lizzy’s gift as a vocalist is highlighted in each of her performances as she sings with lyricism, gentleness, passion and musicality.

Her original Canadian-inspired songs tell stories of home, war, immigration, and love. Traditional Celtic material is brought to life with freshness while maintaining the musical and historical integrity of the songs. And, she will dazzle you with her talents on fiddle, guitar, mandolin, harp and step-dance.
