About Me

Lij is a soulful singer/songwriter whose fresh and honest songs allure the ears and grip the hearts of those who are graced by them. The name means ‘child’, and while Lij is all woman, there is a vulnerability to her music that is clearly drawn from a place of uninhibited innocence.

Lij’s first EP, "Lij,” is now available for download on (and pretty much everywhere else). Take it. Rip it. Burn it. Share it.

And while you're at it, say it:

(like hijack with an "L" and without the "ack" . . .)

Chrome. Gratitude. Bandmates.

Good morning, friends. I have much to say today. I hope that this finds you so, so well. I laugh because in almost every single blog Ive written in these last two years, Ive waxed poetic about ...

Different.

The view changes and so I blog to you. This time, the shift is not from one street to another, crossing the borders of LA neighborhoods. This time I've left home. I've come home. And I'm caught somewh...

You and me in the real world.

As I sit here in my studio, crunching to get these charts done in time for my favorite musicians to learn these new songs of mine in time for tomorrow night's gig, I find myself distracted by the aft...

Have Your Way

It is 4:15 on a Friday afternoon and my heart is racing.  It could be because of the double portion of coffee I had this morning or the wasabi peas that I've been snacking on for the last twenty ...

Sunrise.

I shot out of bed this morning, two minutes before my alarm was set to go off: 4:13am. The only attempt I made at looking like I wasn't wearing my pajamas was to throw on a pair of jeans. In my ho...
