Lily Vakili

Lily Vakili's Official YouTube Channel.  

"Anybody Knows" is out now. Live Wire Tour dates announced!

Lily Vakili is, at her core, a storyteller.  Her voice and music are "compelling in the way the first Patti Smith music gripped a listener, the Swans' Jarboe enthralled or even Nico startled." - Americana Highways.  

A lifelong observer, chronicler, and creative force, she has spent decades gathering fragments of the world – memories, landscapes, voices, losses, joys – and transforming them into urgent, electric songs. The past decade has seen her channel that force through five studio albums – released both as a solo artist and with Vakili Band – each one experimenting with the wide, untamed possibilities of rock.  

“I love the serendipitous nature of art,” Vakili says. “It’s disruptive, it’s intentional, it’s an exertion of will.”

Lily will be on tour with her band throughout 2026 in support of her upcoming EP, Live Wire.
