At the tender age of just seventeen, Lily Grace is an extremely talented artist, songwriter and storyteller. Already turning industry heads, collaborating with iconic Australian artists, supporting artists such as Vance Joy, and with over 2 million streams, this Gold Coast Australian native is one of the most exciting female artists to emerge in recent years, venturing to Nashville and the USA to propel her music career.
With her relaxed, easy-listening style and warm and natural stage presence, this vibrant songstress leaves audiences transfixed by her undeniable talent, her young age, and her unique style.
Naturally gifted, Lily Grace began singing at 10 years of age. She dived deeper into music six years ago when she was gifted her first guitar. Her determination led her to performing at local markets, and soon after, attracting her to local cafes, restaurants, events and festivals.
Inspired by the likes of Dan + Shay, Hunter Hayes, Keith Urban, Luke Combs, Maddie & Tae, Taylor Swift and Maren Morris, this wholesome artist strives to embody their innovative style, work ethic, and sound in her own unique way.
With several years of stage experience already under her belt, she recently opened for Vance Joy at his Australian Brisbane Riverstage concert, and she has performed with several big names in the Australian country music scene including Casey Barnes, James Blundell, Amber Lawrence, Catherine Britt, and Tania Kernaghan. She’s performed on main stages of international and Australian country festivals including Barefoot Country Music Festival (New Jersey, USA), CMA Fest (Nashville, TN, USA), Freedom Fest (Monterey, TN, USA), Tamworth Country Music Festival, the Gympie Muster, and Groundwater Country Music Festival.
She thrives for the moments when she connects with her fans. “My songs revolve around storytelling.” When she is not strumming her six-string or on the road performing, she’s taking her dreams, first-hand experiences and stories she hears along the way and turning them into songs that connect with her audience.
A finalist in Queensland’s 2023 QMusic Awards and ‘Breakout Artist of the Year’ finalist in the 2023 Gold Coast Music Awards, winner of the 2022 Gold Coast Music Awards ‘Peoples Choice’ award and finalist for ‘Breakout Artist of the Year’, Lily Grace is already headlining her own tours along the coastlines of Australia and rapidly earning the recognition she deserves. She exhibits an undeniable warmth as an artist, and her strong, 120,000+ loyal fan base is evidence of this.
A finalist in the Australian Country Music People’s Choice Awards in several categories in 2022, including Best Female Vocalist, Most Promising Future Star and Best Video, she was awarded Best Video for her single ‘Annie June’. Nominated in 9 categories of the 2022 Tamworth Songwriters Association Awards she was awarded ‘Country Song of the Year’ and ‘Country Rock Song of the Year’.
Her love for performing and following her country music dream came true when she released a collaboration with acclaimed Australian artist James Blundell entitled ‘Annie June’ in 2021. The excitement around the track helped it reach the Top 10 on the ‘Australian Country Radio’ chart, #17 on the ‘Hottest Australian Country Hits’ chart, #9 on ‘Country Radio Charts,’ and #31 on the ‘Countrytown Hot 50 Music Chart’. The official music video was played in high rotation on Foxtel’s & Fetch CMT TV channel reaching #3 in ‘Today’s Top 15,’ and was also featured in ‘Official Top 30,’ ‘Fresh Country,’ and ‘Aussie Country’ programs.
Off the heels of her first successful release, a debut solo single, ‘Sixteen Wishes’, was next. Within its first week, it was the #1 streamed and downloaded song for Australian radio airplay. This song also rocketed to #3 on the Australian Country iTunes Chart and #27 on the Australian All Genres iTunes Chart. The official music video caught the attention from CMT in Australia, which led to adding it to their playlist and the song charted in the CMT Official Top 30, reaching #13.
With determination, confidence, and passion to create real and honest music, in 2022, she released ‘The Two Of Us Meet’ in Australia and to the USA, growing her international following significantly. Her successful release saw the song hit over 1 million streams, reach #1 on ‘iTunes Australia Country Chart’, #11 on ‘iTunes Australia All Genres Chart’, #1 on ‘Country Thunder’, #5 on ‘Australian Independent Record Labels Association Chart’, #6 on the ‘Oz Country Music Radio Tasmania Chart’, #9 on ‘Hottest Australian Country Hits’ and #12 on ‘Country Radio Charts.’ In the USA, the song debuted on the Music Row Country Breakout Chart at #78 and rose into the Top 30 on the Music Row Indie Chart, placing at #23. CMT Australia added the music video to high rotation and the track rose to #11 on the CMT Top 30 Chart.
The success of ‘The Two Of Us Meet’ in 2022 drew the young songstress over to the USA for 6 weeks for radio interviews, television appearances, podcasts, songwriting, recording, and performances. She performed at Live on the Levee in Charlston, West Virginia, and toured with the Davisson Brothers Band, as well as performing to over 40,000 people at the Barefoot Country Music Festival in Wildwoods, New Jersey; Freedom Fest in Monterey, Tennessee; songwriter’s rounds at the iconic Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee; and other well-known Nashville songwriter venues.
February saw the release of her 4th single ‘Follow My Road’, an upbeat and catchy track to empower people to follow their dreams and set out on their own path. This song bought a confident narrative to this rising singer-songwriter’s story as she ventured from Australia to Nashville to follow her music dreams. The song achieved great success, with adds to several Apple and Spotify playlists, major radio, and climbed to Number 1 on the Australian Country Radio Charts, the Country Thunder Top 30 and the Tasmania OZ Country Music Radio Top 40 Charts, with the music video reaching #18 on CMT’s Top 30.
Her 5th single, ‘Bet On Us’, released in July is about believing in something when no-one else does! It’s all about betting on a relationship when everybody is betting against it. Lily shares ‘If you’ve ever been told your relationship isn’t going to work out, because you’re too young, or not a good match, this song is for you!’. Receiving recognition for her songwriting prowess, she was honoured to be featured in ‘American Songwriter‘ about this release.
Her latest release ‘Maybe So’ is a testament to those electric night-time encounters that just feel right. It’s about the excitement of meeting someone and both knowing the same songs by heart, where every word and laugh feels like it was written in the stars. ‘Maybe So’ is a reminder that love can sneak up on us in the most surprising ways and that sometimes the most cherished memories begin with a chance meeting. If you’re a dreamer or a believer in the unexpected, this song will be your new anthem!
Lily Grace is certainly proving to be a prolific songwriter making waves on the international music scene, performing at iconic festivals and venues and is certainly one of the most exciting female artists to emerge in recent years.
