Teen dramatic pop vocalist and songwriter Lillie King will prove age is merely a number when she delivers an introspective and infectious self-titled EP with Mon Hill Records on Friday, November 20. The 17-year-old does not shy away from powerful lyrics and spotlighting her skillful vocals on a project that runs in the same vein as Sara Bareillis or Lady Gaga's Joanne. The EP includes a total of six songs including her lead single Red which  is currently available to purchase or stream on Amazon, Apple Music, Deezer, Pandora, Spotify andamp; YouTube. Her full length album is currently available for Pre-Save now.  

“The most amazing thing about this project is that it’s a true reflection of a growing artist,” says Lillie. “The first complete songs I wrote are on this EP, which is something special. You get to hear my first try and the first thoughts that I wanted to put into music. You also get to hear music that was written much farther into my career; so, you really are watching a young artist mature and grow as a person - all in one EP.”

With a decade of theater already under her belt, Lillie is ready to dive into her career as a professional singer and songwriter. Her ambition and passion have led to incredible opportunities including performing on the Carnegie Hall and Professional Theatre of West Virginia stages. After winning the 2019 "Talent West Virginia," she was awarded a recording contract with Mon Hills Records that led to the creation of the current project. With its release, Lillie will bring her unique and influential style to the music industry solidifying herself as the first lady-in-waiting for her spot at the top as her career and fan base simultaneously grow.
 
In an exclusive premiere of the lead single Red with Vents Magazine, Lillie expanded on her feelings about the song: "I have always connected to Red so strongly because there is one clear message —- you messed up and I’m moving on without you. Need a breakup song? Red. Need some motivation? Red. Want to dance? Red. It’s all in there, and this song will always be there for any mood you might be in." 
 
Lillie provided perspective on the musical impact she wanted to achieve with the EP in an interview with We Are Entertainment News saying, "When someone listens to my music, I want them to genuinely enjoy what they’re listening to. I want them to feel good about the music, enjoy the story, relax to the lyrics, or dance to the beat. I hope they feel the same connection when listening that I do when writing."
 
She's already receiving high praise from outlets including the review below when Out Now Magazine selected Lillie to rank among their list of "Your Next Favorite 10 Artists."
 
"This lead track [Red] from her forthcoming, self-titled EP, finds her landing a cheeky, clap-back lyric about a relationship’s breaking point positioned among supportive female backing vocals and a brass line that brings the fire of a lost love." - Out Now Magazine

So who exactly is Lillie King?

She's a teen singer, songwriter and performing artist from a small-town in West Virginia. With a decade of live theater experience already under her feet, Lillie was inspired to pursue a career in singing and songwriting. This distinctive, dramatic pop and adult contemporary artist developed her musical influences from her parent's 70s classics, new-age Indie rock and piano ballads.  While honing her craft among the programs at The New York Film Academy, Lillie would land a milestone opportunity when she won "Talent West Virginia" in 2019. Consequently, she was awarded a recording contract with Mon Hills Records. Her debut single from those sessions, Red, is available now with a full, self-titled EP slated for November 20.
