Lizzie Sider

Listen to “Butterfly

Lizzie is 15 years old, and a sophomore in high school. Music and theater first got into Lizzie’s heart and soul in the small town of Jackson, WY, where she has lived each summer since she was born. During early childhood summers, Lizzie looked up to the actors at the Jackson Hole Playhouse, where at age 4 she saw her first musical, Annie Get Your Gun. Lizzie sat in the front row during performances, and sang along, to all of the songs. Lizzie went on to participate in children’s’ shows, work at the concession stand, and in the pre.show, and eventually in the main show, as well as in the daily old western “shoot.out” that is reenacted on the local town square.

Growing up, Lizzie attended concerts of Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Lady Antebellum, and others. She knew that she wanted to do what they did, just as she knew when she saw the performances at the Jackson Hole Playhouse.

Lizzie has opened for Gloriana, Jamie O’Neal and Aaron Tippin, and has been the featured performer at several Rodeos. She has performed at a myriad of writer’s nights in Nashville. Lizzie recently performed with Teddy Gentry (Alabama) at his 2013 birthday party in Nashville. And, Lizzie has performed at Nashville’s Bluebird Café and in the Grand Ballroom at The Waldorf Astoria Hotel during Couture Fashion Week in NYC.  Lizzie has been the host of “Breaking Out”, which is TCN.  Zuus Country Network’s television show, that showcases up and coming country artists. She has been featured on TV on Hallmark’s Home & Family Show, and on the premier country music interview TV show, Crook & Chase.

Lizzie has toured the St. Jude Children’s Hospital in Memphis, and hopes to play for the kids there, soon.  Lizzie has performed at the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Hollywood, FL., at the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, at the Ronald McDonald House in Nashville, and at several Girl Scouts events. 

Lizzie has been named by the CMA (Country Music Association) as one of the “new artists to watch in 2013”.   Lizzie sees herself as having a calling to perform on the big stage and to become a role model and inspiration to others.  People in the industry love working with Lizzie. Lizzie is clean cut, a breath of fresh air, a little old fashioned in certain ways, wholesome, fun loving, and very respectful of others. Lizzie is a genuine sweetheart. 

With a whole lot of country and a hint of pop, Lizzie provides us with a great story, about overcoming life’s obstacles, mistreatments and/or misfortunes, in her debut single, “Butterfly.” Listeners will be surprised with her mature and deep sounds. Don’t expect Lizzie to be a replica of any mainstream country artist because she definitely can hold her own when it comes to satiating a country music lover’s appetite with her mature vocals and youthful lyrics. 

Lizzie’s debut single, “Butterfly”, and second single, “I Love You That Much”, both made the top 40 on the well respected Nashville Music Row Country Chart. 

Lizzie recently made her first.ever music video for “I Love You That Much”. The video was filmed at the downtown Los Angeles Union Station by director, Steven Goldmann (Shania Twain, Martina McBridge,  Alan Jackson). It is playing on GACtv.com, CMT.com, TCN .Zuus Country TV, and on TNN, The Nashville Network Television Station. 

Lizzie’s first full length studio album, will be released in 2013, with songs being produced by Jamie O’Neal (“There is no Arizona”) and by Joe Vulpis (Lady Gaga).  You can stay in touch with Lizzie:  FacebookTwitter & YouTube
