Formed in 2022 from a childhood love of the blues, Lily Anna & The Maverick Queen is; Lily Anna, Jarred Shaw (guitar), Riley Patterson (known affectionately as Patto, lead guitar), Alex Shaw (or Shawry, bass)and Matt Kelly, drums. Fronted by Lily Anna, her presence in a traditionally male-dominated genre infuses the band’s sound with a refreshing perspective, honouring the resilience and grit of womanhood. 

Drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of Western novels, Lily and her Mavericks weave tales of love, loss, and redemption into their music, offering listeners a glimpse into the human experience through the lens of the blues. The band balances that classic blues 1,4,5 with a contemporary approach, complaining about the modern dilemmas we’re all accustomed too. Their upcoming self-titled album promises to be a journey of self-discovery and introspection, inviting listeners to embrace their vulnerability and find strength in their shared humanity being released later 2024.
