The Sweet Lillies' music is, first and foremost, heartfelt and collaborative. Those defining traits are given life by the quartet of musicians who make up the Lillies. Together they have combined their individual strengths to deliver powerful narratives of life in song. With their lineup of guitar, viola, upright bass, drums and ethereal vocal harmonies that float like a dream, the Sweet Lillies' music has a hard hitting original flavor with a forward-looking eye. They have incorporated all of their cumulative life-experiences into their music, song-writing, and artistry, crafting an uncommonly-beautiful style they have christened “String-Americana” - a nod to the band’s all encompassing musical tastes and willingness to experiment with genres ranging from folk and rock all the way to hip-hop.

Adrian and Meredith, the dynamic duo behind The Adrian and Meredith Band, have journeyed from their humble Midwest roots, to the heart of East Nashville's music scene, to international showcasing and summer touring. Along the way, they've forged kinships with members of storied acts like Th'Legendary Shackshakers, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Calexico, and Gogol Bordello, who have become not just heroes but mentors and colleagues.
Their music has taken them across Europe, where they've performed for Ukrainian refugees in Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Germany, alongside the rest of Europe, spreading joy and solidarity through their art. They've graced iconic stages like The Grand Ole Opry with The War & Treaty, Folk Alliance International, and Levitt Pavilions across the USA.
Critics and fans alike have taken notice of Adrian and Meredith's new songs, most-notably "Klezmer American", "Stop the Spiral" and "NFT" as accurate accounts of being a human-being in 2024. The hard-selling band of John Kveen on a driving upright bass, an overly-talented Ben "The Odyssey" Reiff on drums, and unstoppable Ken Wenzel on hot-jazz saxophones and guitars, makes this act difficult not to dance to!
Carson City Levitt AMP hails their performances as "A World Class Performance," while No Depression magazine describes their sound as "Roots Rock Perfection.
