Lindsay Lou

media release: C elebrated Nashville-based  artist Lindsay Lou has announced additional tour dates through the end of 2024 supporting her acclaimed Kill Rock Stars debut, Queen of Time.  Catch Lindsay and her band on TUE, October 22 in Madison at the High Noon Saloon!

Queen of Time garnered praise in Rolling Stone ("Lindsay Lou is poised to be the next bluegrass queen"), Relix, PBS, The Bluegrass Situation and Under the Radar, among others and refers not the duality of the human experience, Lou says. The album was produced by Dave O'Donnell (Sheryl Crow, Heart, James Taylor). The songs find Lou following a path of heartbreak, discovery, and transformation following a divorce, the pandemic lockdowns and the death of her beloved grandmother.  The daughter of a coal-miner and millwright, and the granddaughter of a teacher gone Rainbow Gathering healer, Lou honed her honest and resonant style with her bluegrass-inspired band, Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys, and Michigan supergroup, Sweet Water Warblers (Rachael Davis, May Erlewine), excavating elements of bluegrass, folk, Americana, and soulful pop for their emotional depths. Lou has long been beloved as a live performer, from Telluride Bluegrass Festival to Stagecoach, Celtic Connections to Australia’s National Folk Festival, and a “Can’t Miss Act” at AmericanaFest—not to mention acclaim from PBS, No Depression, Billboard, Holler, Paste, and The Bluegrass Situation, among other outlets. But on Queen of Time, Lou captures a new arc of haloed beauty, becoming unattainable in her own way—a vibrant, powerful woman who can share herself with the world, and yet define a mystic sense of inner self as well. 

Along with appearances this fall at CaveFest in Pelham, TN and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in San Francisco, Lou will be headlining dates this month in the Pacific Northwest, bringing support acts Maya de Vitry and Emma Rose. She'll join fellow Nashville artist The Wood Brothers for select November dates and will be part of the Allman Betts Family Revival for nearly a month of December appearances.
