Los Angeles and Nashville based indie pop artist Lily Kincade is redefining modern storytelling through music. Known for her poetic lyrics, cinematic visuals, and emotional honesty, Lily creates songs that feel like scenes from a movie. Her work blends nostalgic melodies with raw vulnerability, drawing listeners into a world that feels both timeless and deeply personal.
Her debut album Cinematic, released October 24, 2025, tells the story of first love, heartbreak, healing, and growth. Each track plays like a chapter of a film, blending classic pop influences with Lily’s signature lyrical depth and visual imagination.
With support from MTV, Rolling Stone, ET Canada, PopCrush, and a standout performance with Grammy.com, Kincade is proving herself to be one of the most emotionally resonant and visually driven new artists of her generation.
A true creative force, Lily writes her own songs, directs and edits her visuals, and even shoots her cover art. With one third of Cinematic being completely self written, the album captures her artistic vision in full.
In Lily’s words, “Cinematic captures what it feels like to live through your first love — captivating, consuming, unforgettable. Growing up in Los Angeles since I was 14, I’ve always been drawn to storytelling and old Hollywood glamour. There’s something about the allure of fame and vintage movie stars that mirrors a first love. Like the lyrics say, ‘So cinematic, overdramatic… they don’t write them like your first love.’”
Originally from Kansas City, Lily moved to Los Angeles as a teenager to pursue songwriting full time. Now splitting her time between Los Angeles and Nashville, her DIY spirit, visual creativity, and emotional honesty have helped her build a devoted following around the world. Often compared to Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey, Lily embraces those comparisons as a shared language with fans who connect deeply to storytelling through song.
With a growing international audience and a viral online presence, Lily Kincade is not just creating music — she is creating a movement.
