Lillie Mae Rische, known professionally as Lillie Mae, is a Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist whose music brings together country, bluegrass, folk, and rock. Performing since age three, she grew up on the road in her family’s band before joining her siblings in Jypsi, building a reputation for expressive vocals and accomplished fiddle playing. Her career reached a wider audience through her work with Jack White, playing fiddle and mandolin in his touring band and lending her distinctive voice to “Temporary Ground” on his 2014 album, Lazaretto. As a solo artist, Lillie Mae has drawn on that lifelong musical foundation to develop a sound rooted in tradition yet open to experimentation. Her releases include Rain on the Piano (2015), the Jack White-produced Forever and Then Some (2017), and Other Girls (2019), recorded with producer Dave Cobb. She followed those records with Festival Eyes in 2023, continuing a career that balances personal songwriting with instrumental skill and close family collaboration. Whether leading her own recordings or performing alongside other artists, Lillie Mae brings a seasoned musician’s versatility and an unmistakable voice to contemporary roots music.
