Lily Lizotte discusses their newest EP.
April 25, 2021
“The things that move us the most have duality,” says Lily Lizotte. “Lately I’ve been treating joy and pain as the same thing.”
97 Blossom, the EP by 23-year-old American-Australian artist Lily Lizotte affirms just that. Released in early April, the EP marries elements of indie pop, hip-hop and 90s grunge in a smoky, steel-edged daydream. Formerly known as ‘Lila Gold’, Lizotte now goes by ‘The Blossom’, an artist identity they describe as an “genderless and expansive space.” Their prior singles have amassed praise from triple-j, Milk, and i-D, amongst others.
The Blossom’s six new tracks are lucid fragments of introspection, windows into the artist which splinter the closer you look.
