Rootsy singer/songwriter Lilly Hiatt had a lot to live up to when she chose to make music her career -- her father is John Hiatt, one of America's leading songwriters since the 1970s. However, Lilly has shown she has plenty of talent and ideas of her own. With a strong country/roots rock influence, Hiatt's music is also steeped in tough, guitar-based rock, and her lyrics are unflinchingly personal missives about complicated relationships and the rocky side of life's road. She found her voice on her first two solo albums, 2012's Let Down and 2015's Royal Blue, while 2017's Trinity Lane took on a harder lyrical edge as sobriety and a bad romantic breakup informed her songs. 2021's Lately was a set of low-key, personal songs with a strong country accent.
