Vincent Lima

Vincent Lima crafts songs at the intersection of universal human stories and the vulnerable corners of his own experience. Born in Chicago and raised in New Jersey, Lima began writing original music around age five—continuing into high school, where he fell in love with folk and taught himself piano. “After the death of a close friend, I began writing songs about the grief process and realized they were so personal that I should start singing them,” he says. This commitment to emotional honesty is palpable in Lima’s voice, which is both gravelly and tender.

His songs draw on classic folk influences like Jackson Browne and Cat Stevens, while modern, cinematic production and blues-inflected vocals place him closer to artists like Hozier and Dermot Kennedy. Now based in Nashville, Lima has toured nationally with KALEO, Darren Kiely, and Jonah Kagen, and has appeared at festivals including Bonnaroo, Osheaga, and Ocean’s Calling, upcoming Lollapalooza, Outside Lands and Austin City Limits. His 2024 EP Versions of Uncertainty featured the single “Orpheus” and explored the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice as a lens for timeless themes of love, loss, and hope.
