Lydia Loveless made a name for themself as a firebrand alt-country artist, then matured into an indie singer/songwriter whose music made room for contemporary pop influences as well as roots music without betraying their fearless, personal lyrical stance. Loveless’ vocals combine the honky tonk style of classic country stars like Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline with the no-quarter attitude of punk rock icons such as Exene Cervenka and Carla Bozulich, and their idiosyncratic covers of songs by Kesha and Justin Bieber demonstrated how much passion and individuality they bring to their performances. While their music never fully lost the twang displayed on 2011's Indestructible Machine and the 2017 collection Boy Crazy and Single(s), their adventurous pop sensibility is well represented on 2020's Daughter and 2023's Nothing's Gonna Stand in My Way Again.
