For Lizzie Sider, it truly was “love at first sight.” She was five years old when she saw her first musical, Annie Get Your Gun, and it was then that she realized there was “no business like show business.”

Born and raised in South Florida, Lizzie is an American singer, songwriter, speaker, and Founder and CEO of Nobody Has The Power To Ruin Your Day, a non-profit organization for youth empowerment. 

Early in her career, Lizzie’s singles, “Butterfly” and “I Love You That Much” charted in the Top 40 on country radio. The success of Lizzie’s first two singles prompted the Country Music Association to name Lizzie as a CMA Artist to Watch in 2013. Continuing to write with renowned lyricists such as Liz Rose (Taylor Swift, Tim McGraw), Heather Morgan (Brett Eldredge, Keith Urban), and Lisa Drew (Martina McBride, Emerson Drive), she recorded and released multiple singles, EPs, and other projects, including a single entitled “Summer Love Song,” which was featured as the opening track of Hallmark Mystery’s original movie, A Time To Dance, starring Jennie Garth, Dan Payne, and Corbin Bernsen. Lizzie has opened for country acts such as Jamie O’Neal, Aaron Tippin and Gloriana, and has shared the stage with folk legend Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul, and Mary, in an evening performance of their greatest hits. She has also sung the national anthem for more than 20 major league sporting events, including MLB, NHL, NHRA, United States Polo Association, and PGA Tour Champions.

Through the years, Lizzie has continued to hold her theatre roots dear to her heart. She has been seen on stage as Martha in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Cat Ballou in The Ballad of Cat Ballou, Daisy in Another Round, and Amy in Amy, Barbara, and Carl, a new play that raises awareness for domestic violence, that had its debut in New York City in late 2019. 

In addition to music, Lizzie is a passionate advocate and leader for our youth. In 2014, at the age of 16, she founded Nobody Has The Power To Ruin Your Day, a non-profit organization for youth empowerment that aims to combat bullying, encourage kindness and confidence, and above all, instill in kids a strong and positive self-image. Since 2013, Lizzie has visited over 500 schools, all around the United States, with her original, interactive school assemblies. Evolving through the years, Lizzie’s live programs are a combination of upbeat, motivational music and uplifting, inspirational, and heartfelt speaking and storytelling. Through a digital Bully Prevention curriculum that she released in 2016, Lizzie has been able to reach an additional 9,000+ schools in all 50 United States and worldwide, representing more than 6.5 million students. It gives Lizzie great joy and purpose to be able to spread light and hope to students all across the globe. Additionally, Lizzie has been a keynote and featured speaker at national conferences on education, such as AASA (American Association of School Administrators), NCEA (National Catholic Education Association), ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education), and SSAC (School Safety Advocacy Council). 

Lizzie has appeared on multiple daytime talk shows such as Hallmark’s Home & Family and The Queen Latifah Show, and her work, in both music and activism, has been featured in publications such as Country Weekly, CMA Close Up, TIME for Kids, Music Express Magazine, and NEA Today. Lizzie is the recipient of a Hollywood Music in Media Award for Best Americana Song (“Butterfly”), The Peter Yarrow HateBraker Hero Award, a GWEN Luminary Award, and a proclaimed Lizzie Sider Day in the township of Fair Lawn, NJ (October 29, 2018), to celebrate and honor Lizzie’s impact on their community.
