Reilly Downes

Reilly Downes is a torchbearer of modern heartbreak, blending rustbelt grit with cosmic country soul. Hailing from Texas and now rooted in the Chicago music scene, she’s made a name for herself with her “small, but mighty” voice and songs that cut to the bone. Downes has shared the stage with artists like Maggie Rose, Kaitlin Butts, and Jaime Wyatt, and has been featured in Rollingstone.
With a background in both the Americana and indie circuits, Reilly delivers raw, emotionally charged performances with her band, The Acid Cowboys. Her songs, like sad polaroids of love and loss, explore themes of queer identity, grief, and survival.
She is currently in the process of recording her sophomore album with executive production by Jaime Wyatt who has worked alongside Butch Walker, Shooter Jennings, The Black Pumas, and more.
