It has been a big year for Lissie so far – she recently released her newest album “My Wild West”, which was produced by Curt Schneider (Sara Bareilles, Augustana, Matt Nathanson) and debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Heatseekers Chart.
One of Lissie’s most meaningful tracks on the album is “Daughters,” a feminist call-to-arms that took its cue from Liberian peace activist and Nobel Prize winner Leymah Gbowee.
With “Daughters” in mind, Lissie teamed up with charity: water to raise awareness surrounding the non-profit’s mission to bring clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations. She appeared on CNN International to chat about the partnership and play an acoustic version of “Daughters.”
Prior to “My Wild West”, Lissie released “Why You Runnin’“ (2009), “Catching a Tiger“ (2010) and “Back to Forever“ (2013).
All Access recently had the pleasure of speaking with Lissie about her latest album and the musical growth that she has gone through on this collection.
