Liz + the Baguettes are a band based in Chicago. We have dubbed our hybrid of post-punk, rock, folk, and alt-country post-country. Post-country: It's not just a political condition any more!
WE'RE RECORDING AGAIN
Working title of the album: Posthistoric. Lead single: "The Alchemists"? "Lie"? "Fevers"? At some point we'll know.
Working title of the EP (really, at this point, a paired album) of twangier songs: Backroads. (That's a glimpse of the cover art in this page's new header image!)
NEW-ISH ALBUM
Highway Gothic. Available on Bandcamp, Amazon, Spotify, and many other fine services from ButterBean Records. Watch the first video on YouTube, or listen to demo versions of some songs over on ReverbNation.
NO LONGER THE NEWEST ALBUM
Everything I Think I Know Is Wrong is available for download on Bandcamp, Amazon (where, because of a single word in "Whatever, I Know," the entire album is marked as explicit), and iTunes. It's also streaming on Spotify. Pick your poison. BUT WAIT! Make sure you get the newest version. Because ButterBean has released a remastered and expanded version, featuring four tracks that weren't on the 2015 edition.
PRESS, ETC.
Reverb Raccoon featured a couple of our songs on their Christmas compilation playlist.
I Don't Hear a Single gave us a smashing review for the remastered Everything I Think I Know Is Wrong: "already a splendid album. The remastered version makes it even better."
Reverb Raccoon featured "The Age and the Ache" as the 7/15/19 song of the day: "a beautiful country song, the kind of real country music sung by real people who know the human condition."
We headlined the 8/24/19 Paper Machete.
UK comedian Dave Bailey featured "Slinky" in his 9/2/19 podcast.
