CMJ Chart Discovery

The Boxcar Lilies bring a broad musical background to their Americana sound. Before forming the Americana trio, Jenny Goodspeed was writing in the style of ’70s singer songwriters, Stephanie Marshall’s sound was contemporary Nashville and rock and Katie Clarke played traditional country and bluegrass. Together, they highlight a mutual love of three-part harmonies backed by warm guitar, that fabulous rhythmic clawhammer banjo, electric bass, drums and even the occasional washboard. Rooted in folk tradition, their sound is completely contemporary in the vein of Gillian Welch or Neil Young.
