With influences ranging from Paul Butterfield and Ann Peebles to Lynyrd Skynyrd and Pink Floyd, Lizzie has been a guest at many NYC all-star jams, sharing the stage with the likes of James Carter and Sweet Georgia Brown, and has brought the house down as a vocalist for NYC’s most sought-after tribute collective, Murderers’ Row. At age 4, Lizzie began studying Classical Piano and Music Theory at what was then known as Mannes College of Music and was an avid student there for 14 years. She also has studied under renowned vocal teacher, Don Lawrence, for upwards of 8 years. Lizzie's Dad was a constant on the 60’s rock scene, acting as sideman for Chuck Berry and touring with Martha and The Vandellas and the Dave Clark Five. Her grandmother a classical harpsichordist and her grandfather an opera singer, a love and ability for all music truly courses through her veins. With Lizzie and the Makers, she has rocked up and down the East Coast, taken the West Coast by storm, and found a new musical family in Texas, after blowing the roof of her SXSW showcases in Austin. Dark and soulful lead vocals and lyrics by Lizzie Edwards and innovative arrangements by Greg McMullen combine the blues, rock and psychedelic soul of musicians like Freddie King, Sharon Jones and Led Zeppelin.
