Born and raised on Boston’s North Shore, 25-year-old Lily Fitts is emerging as one of the most compelling new voices — an artist defined not by genre, but by the clarity and conviction of her storytelling. What began as intimate covers on TikTok has evolved into a career anchored in lyrical precision and emotional depth, transforming personal experience into songs that resonate well beyond their origins. Her work has drawn early support from artists such as Noah Kahan, The Lumineers, and Zach Bryan, alongside a rapidly growing audience that propelled her debut album, Getting By, to nearly 15 million streams since its release last June.

Getting By introduced Lily as a fully formed storyteller: a coming-of-age record marked by unfiltered honesty, narrative discipline, and a sharp emotional point of view. Drawing subtle influence from songwriters like Dolly Parton while operating with a distinctly contemporary sensibility, Fitts writes with cinematic detail and restraint, allowing each song to unfold with intention. She is not chasing a lane — she is establishing one.

On stage, Lily pairs commanding vocal delivery with a lyric-first performance style that translates with immediacy and impact. Rodeo Magazine calls her live show “beautiful, powerful, and refreshing,” while Concert Chronicles notes a voice that “stretches and simmers.” Following standout appearances at Fairwell Festival, Levitate Festival, and BST Hyde Park alongside Noah Kahan, Gracie Abrams, FINNEAS, and Gigi Perez, she brought Getting By to the road on her first-ever sold-out headline tour.

With momentum accelerating, Lily recently completed a European and UK tour alongside Max McNown, further expanding her international fanbase and stagecraft. She will enter the studio at the beginning of 2026 to record her sophomore album, marking the next step in the steady rise of an artist quickly becoming one of the most compelling young writers of her generation.
