252 American Singer & Songwriter

Elizabeth Catherine McAlpine (born September 21, 1999) was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. She is an American singer-songwriter. She is professionally known as Lizzy McAlpine. She developed a passion for music during her sixth-grade year, and while attending Lower Merion High School, she became a member of a co-ed a cappella group and was active in theater. She later enrolled in the songwriting program at Berklee College of Music in Boston but left during her junior year to focus on her music career.

In April 2020, at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, McAlpine started the Instagram #BerkleeAtHome streaming concert series. Unfortunately, her father passed away in mid-March 2020, and she wrote the song "Headstones and Land Mines" about him on her debut album, Give Me A Minute. She also dedicated the song "chemtrails" to him on her second album, Five Seconds Flat.

In 2018, McAlpine released her debut EP, Indigo, and she wrote her debut studio album, Give Me a Minute, while studying in Spain in the fall of 2019. The album was released in August 2020 and was well-received by critics. It has been streamed millions of times on Spotify and other digital service providers. The Dallas Observer named it one of the best albums of 2020, and the BBC Media Centre referred to McAlpine as an "up-and-coming vocalist."

McAlpine has gained a significant following on TikTok and Instagram, with several publications referring to her as a "TikTok star." Her unreleased song "You Ruined the 1975," posted in June 2020, has over 8 million views on TikTok as of April 2021. In April 2021, she released an 8-song live EP, When the World Stopped Moving: The Live EP.

On November 22, 2021, McAlpine made her late-night debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! performing "Erase Me". She released her second studio album, Five Seconds Flat, on April 8, 2022. The album debuted at number five on the US Billboard Heatseekers chart, while also peaking at number nine on the Alternative New Artist Albums chart and number 19 on the Top New Artist Albums chart. One song on the album, "Ceilings," went viral on TikTok, making it the most streamed song from the album.

Following the release of her album, McAlpine announced her debut headline tour in 2022. She also performed a set on NPR Music's Tiny Desk Concert in November 2022, with the band Tiny Habits as backing vocalists. NPR listeners ranked her in the top 10 Tiny Desk Concerts of 2022. McAlpine's tour is scheduled to start in April 2023 and she will be performing in several countries.
