Elizabeth and Her Band

Elizabeth ‘s stringband brings her original music to life, pairing roots music with an old-time bluegrass feel. The band typically includes Elizabeth alternating between banjo and fiddle, an upright bass and a guitarist.

Fans of Elizabeth's live performance note her effortless stage presence and ability to connect with a crowd. She fits in as easily at an intimate house show as she does at a music festival, with an intuitive selection of music that turns heads no matter the setting. You'll love watching her switch between instruments and challenge expectations about the folk/americana genre.
