Lili (1997 Atlantic Records), Light Blue Sun (2003 BMG Music), Goodbye Stranger Ep (2007 Nettwerk Music Group), and Place Between Places (2008 Nettwerk Music Group). She has played with, sung with, and opened for everyone from Roger Waters, Herbie Hancock, Sting, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Josh Groban, Seal, Matchbox 20, Cyndi Lauper, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, and George Clinton's P-Funk All Stars to name a few.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspired, June 2, 2008

This is an inspired, genre-defying album that takes you on a journey from the dance-worthy to the divine. The licks are lush, the vibe worldly, the melodies other-worldly, the ideas timely -- the totality of it is somehow hypnotic and regenerative. This album just might have the power to heal. And check out Lili Haydn live if and as often as you have the chance -- she's a force of nature on stage.

I first heard her while roaming around in a Borders store. I took a chance, and I'm glad I did. This isn't the first time that a classical violinist has been combined with rock...Lorenza Ponce comes to mind.

She has a sweet voice, but the violin remains her primary instrument. There are times when her violin playing sounds like guitar solos! Now, if only people can break out of their prejudices against violins in rock!

4.0 out of 5 stars Far-reaching mix of alt-pop, world music and space-rock, June 27, 2008

This review is from: Place Between Places (Audio CD)

This is the third album by singer-violinist Lili Haydn, who merges alt-pop and space rock with traces of world music and folk. Fans of all those old, classic Kate Bush albums will want to check this gal out; folks who like Peter Gabriel's latter-day explorations of global beat music, too. Haydn has a wide, dynamic range, with softer, more conventionally melodic songs like "Memory One" balanced by cosmic, proggy difficult listening, ala "Atom Heart Mother" (on "Powers Of Five," which closes the album...) Haydn's work won't be for everyone, but for the right audience, this album and others will be a long-lasting treat. (DJ Joe Sixpack, Slipcue Music Guide)
