A singer songwriter who mixes the honky tonk atmosphere of vintage country with the clever bite of indie rock, Nikki Lane is a barroom siren whose music is tough, witty, and bold inhabiting Nashville archetypes while upending them at the same time. Lane’s songs walk a fine line between sincerity and irony, but the passion and effectiveness of her vocals keeps her from sounding like a put-on, and her melodies mix rootsy twang and rock & roll edge with confidence.

Raised as a Baptist in Greenville, South Carolina, Lane discovered music as an outlet for creative expression at an early age, dropping out of school at 17 to move to Los Angeles, next to New York, and then Nashville to launch her songwriting career. She introduced her talent on her 2011 debut Walk of Shame and added a soulful edge on 2014's All or Nothin' (produced by Dan Auerbach) and Highway Queen from 2017.On her most recent album, Denim & Diamonds, produced by Queens of the Stone Age frontman, Joshua Homme, she eased off her country accents and added a harder rock edge to her mix. With the release in June of the moving confessional single, Woodruff City Limit, produced by Butch Walker, speculation and anticipation grows that the two may be collaborating on a new album - let’s hope so!
