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 Amble, KALEO, Matt Maeson, Darren Kiely, and Jonah Kagen, and has appeared at festivals including Bonnaroo, Osheaga, Ocean’s Calling, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Austin City Limits and Zootown. Lima released his debut studio album, To Love A Thing That Fades, in September 2025. Across 15 tracks, the album uses the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice to explore grief, heartbreak, and the enduring value of loving something even as it fades. Lima’s second studio album, Your World Is Big Enough, explores the tender uncertainty of falling in love while still carrying the weight of loss. Drawing from the myth of Perseus and Andromeda, the record traces the tensions between a desire to see the world and the longing to build a life with someone in one place. Through moments of grief, heartbreak and vulnerability, it arrives at a hopeful understanding that love grows through the patience to see another person fully and the courage to let yourself be seen. Expansive and deeply personal, Your World Is Big Enough finds possibility in sharing what once felt impossible to hold alone. It discovers that the world built between two people is already endless and vast enough to call home.
