"Sparkling sixth heralds a self-reckoning for the Nashville-based songwriter...Hiatt has rarely rocked harder than on Forever." - Americana Album of the Month - Uncut Magazine
Born in Los Angeles and raised in Tennessee, Hiatt first earned buzz with a pair of early solo records before breaking out with 2017’s Trinity Lane. Produced by Shovels & Rope’s Michael Trent, the record helped Hiatt earn dates with the likes of John Prine, Margo Price, Drive-By Truckers, and Hiss Golden Messenger in addition to festival slots everywhere from Pilgrimage to Luck Reunion. NPR called the album “courageous and affecting,” while The Independent raved that it showcased Hiatt’s “gift for unpicking knotty lyrical themes in a personalised blend of countrified rock music,” and Rolling Stone hailed it as “the most cohesive and declarative statement of the young songwriter’s career.” Hiatt delivered on the album’s promise with her similarly well-received 2020 follow-up, Walking Proof, and, unable to tour due to the pandemic, quickly returned to the studio again for 2021’s Lately, which The Boston Herald said showcased her “knack for plainspoken, poetic lyrics” and Uncut proclaimed to be “captivating.”
The last few years have been a little hazy for Lilly Hiatt. “I was on the phone with a friend recently who said she wasn’t sure where I’d been,” Hiatt recalls. “I realized I wasn’t really too sure of that either.” The search for answers—where she’s been, who she’s become, what it all means—lies at the heart of Hiatt’s striking new album, Forever. Written and recorded in Hiatt’s new home just outside Nashville, the collection grapples with growth and change, escape and anxiety, self-loathing and self-love.
“I wrote ‘Forever’ on tour in San Francisco after playing this festival where they put me and the band up in this amazing hotel,” Hiatt recalls. “I couldn’t have been happier to be there, and there was a time in my life when I would have wanted nothing more than to stay forever. But in that moment, I realized the thing I was most excited about was getting back to my house and my dog and telling my husband all about it.” Ultimately, that revelation is what Forever is all about. If you can slow down enough to live in the moment, if you can quiet the outside world enough to hear to your own heart, if you can blow away the haze and learn to see what’s right in front of you, you just might find that reality is more beautiful than any dream.
"John Hiatt's daughter continues to impress... a captivating set, aided by a full band that shifts between artful, countryish ballads and cabin-fever rockers." 8 out of 10 Stars - Uncut Magazine
