First Night Boston 2025

The Lied To’s, an americana-folk rock duo from Massachusetts made up of musicians Doug Kwartler and Susan Levine will take the stage.

The Lied To’s “uniquely blend folk, rock, bluegrass, and country in ways that capture their distinctive style, one that feels both contemporary and timeless.” - The Daily Country

The Lied To’s took their name from the revered Everly Brothers song, "When Will I Be Loved.” Their self-titled debut cd, released in 2015, rose to the top of the roots rock charts and landed in the top 100 of the prestigious No Depression readers’ poll. Their second cd, The Lesser of Two Evils, released in May 2018, received universal praise for its gritty instrumentation, impeccable harmonies and honest songwriting. Tom Haugen of The Daily Vault called it, “…nothing short of brilliant.”

Their recently released third album,The Worst Kind of New, has garnered outstanding reviews and received radio airplay around the world. The Lied To’s have played sold-out concerts at Club Passim in Cambridge, MA, and The Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, TN.
