THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6
NEW ALBUM ‘LILI LAND’ OUT NOW
LILI HAYDN, the Los Angeles singer, songwriter, composer, violinist and humanitarian will be making her way to New York City Thursday, November 6 for a special live performance at Rockwood Music Hall. The show is in support of her latest release LILI LAND. For more information log on to www.rockwoodmusichall.com
Lili and her band will perform songs from her first album in six years and fourth overall which was just released on September 16. Produced by Lili and mixed by Darrell Thorp (Radiohead and Beck) with drum work spearheaded by Matt Chamberlain (Pearl Jam, Lana Del Rey and Tori Amos), her 12-track album is a blend of quirky pop hooks, soulful melody, and raw grooves. It’s all unified by her unique brand of violin virtuosity, nakedly honest vocals and poignant lyrics that reflect her passion for social justice and personal soul-searching.
Lili Land features “Sea of Gold” which has been featured on Nic Harcourt’s nationally syndicated radio program “Connections” and added to several non-commercial and college radio stations around the country. There is also a uniquely arranged rendition of the Led Zeppelin classic “Kashmir” as tribute to the legendary band. (Watch her video for “Kashmir” here. HAYDN performed the song live in 1995 with Jimmy Page and Robert Plant at The Forum in Los Angeles and subsequently opened for them on their last U.S. tour.) Joining HAYDN on LILILAND are acclaimed singer/songwriter/musicians Marvin Etzioni (“My My Cross The Line”—video coming soon) with Itai Disraeli and Blake Mills (“Elephant Trapeze [Welcome to LiliLand]”).
Lili Land “was written and recorded in the four years following a freak chemical accident in my home, in which the pesticides in the foundation used to prevent termites made me sick, caused brain damage, and forced me to get rid of everything I owned,” says Lili. “After trying every therapy around, I finally recovered by way of practicing my violin.” She adds: “My song ‘How I Got My Brains Back’ starts with a classical melody that helped me get well, and unleashes the healing mayhem of a rock violin concerto.” Lili explores this period of her life in a 2012 TEDx TALK which can be viewed here.
