Lily Rose Fitts (born December 9, 2000) is an American singer-songwriter based in Massachusetts. She gained attention in 2023 after artists including Noah Kahan, Zach Bryan, and The Lumineers shared her cover performances on social media. [1]
Fitts was born in Topsfield, Massachusetts [1] and also spent part of her youth in Cambridge, Massachusetts. [1] She began playing piano and guitar at age nine. She graduated from Cambridge Rindge and Latin School [1] in 2019 and earned a degree in biochemistry and molecular biology from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 2023. [2]
Fitts gained initial attention in 2023 through TikTok, where a rewritten version of Noah Kahan’s song "Stick Season" garnered over two million views and led to a repost from Kahan himself. [1] Later that year, she joined Zach Bryan onstage at his sold-out Crypto.com Arena show in Los Angeles to perform his song “Oklahoma City.” [2]
She supported artists including Michael Marcagi, Sam Barber, and Myles Smith throughout 2024 and 2025 and performed at major festivals including Bonnaroo, Summerfest, Lovin' Life, Springfest, and Extra Innings. [3]
Fitts released her debut album, Getting By, on June 27, 2025, through independent label Thirty Knots Records. The 10‑track project explores themes of heartbreak, anxiety, grief, and personal growth, and was praised for its lyrical honesty and stripped‑back acoustic production. [4] [5]
In support of her debut album, Fitts launched her first headlining tour, The Getting By Tour, in 2025. The tour includes 11 U.S. dates, beginning in Phoenix, Arizona and concluding in Cambridge, Massachusetts at The Sinclair. [6] She also made her UK debut with a sold-out appearance at BST Hyde Park, supporting Noah Kahan, Gracie Abrams, and FINNEAS on July 4, 2025. [7]
Additional European tour dates with Max McNown are scheduled for December 2025, including shows in Dublin, Paris, Amsterdam, and London. [5]
Fitts’ sound blends indie folk and alt-country influences. [4] Her music is centered around honest, vulnerable lyrics and simple yet textured production. She cites Noah Kahan and The Lumineers as primary musical inspirations. [4]
