After two albums on Maverick Records, Cranbrook, BC’s Evins’ sisters are back in style with a brand spanking-new pop album out today and a determination to follow the path blazed by  Maverick’s boss, Madonna, by taking control of their careers in Lillix.
Now based in Vancouver, guitarist Tasha-Ray and keyboardist Lacy-Lee released Falling Uphill on Maverick in 2003. The album spawned 3 singles: It’s About Time, Tomorrow, and What I Like About You–a cover of the hit song by The Romantics, featured on the ‘03 Freaky Friday soundtrack, and the theme song for the comedy series What I Like About You. Then, as now, billed as Lillix, the quartet earned 2 Juno nominations in ’04.
The 2nd album, Inside the Hollow, was released in Canada on August 2006 and in Japan in September. The sophomore set yielded only one single, Sweet Temptation. Later that year Lillix was mothballed with the sisters up-rooting themselves from Cranbrook for Vancouver in 2008. Now a five-piece, Tigerlily, the album, is pure Power Pop, as is the current single, Nowhere To Run now in high rotation on MuchMusic and getting added on a growing number of major market radio playlists such as Hot 103 in Winnipeg, Wired in Saskatoon and Z103 in Halifax.
“We’ve been in a band since 1997,†Lacey explains. “We can’t just stop.â€
“It’s been up and down like a roller-coaster,†Tasha comments. “One day you’re down, the next you’re go-go-go.â€
