About Me

Elizabeth started her musical life early on, lucky enough to have musicians as parents. Studying piano since age three, her classical career culminated in a piano performance degree from the Indiana University School of Music and a debut recital in Carnegie Hall. Discovering song-writing in her early 20’s, this passion took Elizabeth in a new direction... namely, South! Currently residing in Nashville, TN, Elizabeth is on the piano faculty of the Blair School of Music at Vanderbilt University, and she continues to write and perform original songs.
