La Bete

Chad Bishop and Elizabeth Lopiccolo, the central songwriting team of The Cripple Lilies, the duo began writing for this album in 2005 and rigorously thumped local venues, stirring up public attention and honing the stripped-down live sound that signaled a definite departure from their earlier projects.

Along the way, they collaborated with longtime friend and co-conspirator Aaron Finley and gifted local musicians Sean Petersen and Brandon Warren. The resulting quintet was widely acclaimed locally and regionally, and after much research and forethought,they recorded in Athens, Georgia with acclaimed Indie producer David Barbe of Chase Park Transduction.

The Cripple Lilies will play their soothing folk music for you as you sip a cup of coffee. The singers have the kind of voices that make you remember those childhood summer days walking down a country road with your grandpa, picking wildflowers.
