Liz Lenten

Auburn has been captivating
audiences around the world with
their unique blend of Americana,
blues and roots music. Fronted by
female vocalist Liz Lenten, who has
been described thus “.....in delivering
melodic dramatic monologue, Liz
Lenten is among the best around” –
DAVID INNES – R2 MAGAZINE
With varied influences from Bonnie
Raitt, Billie Holiday, Amy Winehouse
to Kate Bush, Auburn’s songs grab
you melodically and tell stories of
life's ups and downs.
Auburn have recorded their last 4
albums in Nashville, TN, with awardwinning, Grammy- nominated
producer, Thomm Jutz, gaining
airplay worldwide, and have toured
extensively, as special guests with
Sophie Ellis-Bexter, Steve Forbert,
Jefferson Starship, LiveDead 69,
Martin Carthy & Dave Swarbrick and
many headline shows.
“Liz Lenten at times sang with a frailty
that gave her songs an atmosphere
and emotion that a balls-out delivery
might have ruined, not that she
hadn’t got the power when
needed!...... my set highlight was the
aforementioned ‘Sitia Bay’, with its
Billie Holliday vocal treatment.”
ROBIN 2 – LIVE REVIEW
Brand New AUBURN EP – ‘My
Favourite Mistake’ will be released
in spring 2023.
“Opening up the musical proceedings were
‘Auburn’, a British group led by Liz Lenten,
they played a set consisting of country, blues
and Americana which really hit the spot on a
cold, miserable February evening. Liz’s voice
echoed the stars of the Nashville country music
scene and the stripped back band produced a
balanced platform for her to launch herself,
winning many hearts with this solid
performance.” EXETER PHEONIX – LIVE

“Intimate kind of retro styled blues’ – Gary
Hill, Music Street Journal (USA)
“Auburn makes wonderfully atmospheric
music...like the kind of country that first turned
rappers on to Johnny Cash because he was
such an OG” - Midwest Records (USA)
