Lily DeTaeye
is a Des Moines, IA native with a foundation in alt rock, pop, and folk.
Her third studio album EVEN WITH MY EYES CLOSED is a nostalgic and biting entry into the world of dreamy pop. Think Lilith Fair etherealism meets barbed hooks that stick right in the jaw.
DeTaeye is based in Brooklyn, NY.
Press:
For Folk's Sake:
"Her earnest lyrics and mature songwriting abilities are front and center, making The E.P. a strikingly honest and relatable portrayal of life at the cusp of adulthood. "
Popmatters:
“DeTaeye‘s soulful, honey-smooth vocals will draw you in.”
Iowa Public Radio:
"Since the release of DeTaeye’s album BiTe Back, she has been singing about what it means to be a woman in today’s political landscape. Her just-released video “Tusk” is a challenge to men who believe they deserve to be ever dominant."
