Liz Longley Tickets

LIZ LONGLEY IN CONCERT:

Acoustic singer-songwriter Liz Longley has a knack for deeply emotional songwriting and a stunningly expressive voice that  brings those songs to life. The rising songstress's crystal-clear delivery recalls a young Joni Mitchell or Paula Cole, and her hushed, intimate songs and powerful live performances have earned her a loyal fanbase. Longley is a relative newcomer -- she released her self-titled debut album in early 2015-- but her mesmerizing, confident live shows reveal her to be an old soul with a deep musical foundation. Whether she's singing confessional tunes like "When You've Got Trouble" and "Unraveling" or entertaining fans with anecdotes about her musical journey, Longley never fails to impress with her soaring voice, gentle guitar playing, and poetic lyrics.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Liz Longley grew up in East Brandywine Township, PA, where she began writing songs at age 14. By 15 she was recording in a studio, and at 16 she signed her first contract. The following year she became an internet hit, topping the acoustic chart on GarageBand.com with her song "Naked Trees". A string of songwriting honors soon followed including an International Acoustic Music Award for the song "When You've Got Trouble" and a top prize from the BMI John Lennon Songwriting Scholarship Competition. In the early '00s Longley began raising funds for her debut album using crowdfunding site Kickstarter. She quickly surpassed her goal of $35,000, and the effusive show of support from her fans helped land her a deal with Sugar Hill Records in 2014. Longley released her self-titled debut on the label in early 2015, drumming up excitement among ticket buyers for her next round of shows on the road.
