Lilly Hiatt Announces New Album, Tour Dates
Lilly Hiatt‘s brand new album, Walking Proof, is set to release on March 27 on New West Records. The project includes some special guests, including Amanda Shires, Aaron Lee Tasjan, Luke Schneider, and Lilly’s father, legendary singer-songwriter John Hiatt. John’s appearance on “Some Kind Of Drug” marks the first time the pair have appeared together on one of her records.
The 11-song set was produced by former Cage The Elephant member Lincoln Parish, and is the followup to her breakthrough project Trinity Lane. She found inspiration for the album after some time off the road facing some difficult personal challenges and hurdles, yet coming out the other side stronger and triumphant. “When I got that little gap in my schedule, it gave me the chance to appreciate some mental stillness,” she explained. “I can be a pretty anxious person, but I found a sense of peace by deconstructing all of these interactions and emotions I’d experienced and reconfiguring them into songs. It helped me make sense of everything and learn to relax.”
Walking Proof will be available on CD, across digital platforms, and on standard black vinyl. A Limited Edition Translucent Turquoise Vinyl Pressing featuring a Black & White 12×12 insert of the cover artwork will be available at independent retailers, and a limited edition autographed by Hiatt featuring a one-of-a-kind random colored vinyl, a black and white 12×12 cover artwork insert, and a box of colored pencils is available for pre-order now via New West Records.
Hiatt has also announced initial tour dates in support of Walking Proof, which will launch April 2nd in Atlanta and visit 35 cities through July 18th including a date in Nashville April 18th at the Basement East.
