Welcome to the Mexican Summer family, @mercelemon 🌿

A Pittsburgh native raised in a household steeped in art and music, Merce has spent her whole life embedded in the city’s tight-knit creative community - playing shows, learning from her surroundings, and building something that feels genuinely her own. After a period of stepping back, getting her hands dirty, sleeping outside, and rediscovering herself through nature and writing, she returned with 2024’s ‘Watch Me Drive Them Dogs Wild’ - a record of propulsive guitars, pastoral imagery, and raw emotional honesty that moves between tender ballads and blown-out electric catharsis.

Pittsburgh native @mercelemon captivated listeners with her 2024 breakthrough album, ‘Watch Me Drive Them Dogs Wild,' an album of folk rock and country-infused songwriting capturing big ideas and bigger feelings with vivid imagery. Listen to Lemon’s pastoral, warm song craft and you’ll hear the influence of Bonnie “Prince” Billy or Lucinda Williams in her strummed acoustic guitars and winding song structures. Her Audiotree Live performance is a powerful full band showcase.
