Lucy is a 21 year old acoustic artist from Derby. She plays guitar and concertina but considers her voice to be her first instrument. Her sets are an eclectic mix of traditional and modern folk interpretations, interspersed with her own songs.
Having supported many of the top folk artists including Seth Lakeman, Chris Wood, Tams & Coope, Phil Beer, Dave Swarbrick, Nancy Kerr & James Fagan and The Oysterband, Lucy has gone on to become a headline act in her own right at festivals and clubs all over the country.
Having signed to Navigator Records in 2010, her debut album “Adelphi Has To Fly” was released in June 2011. It attracted very positive reviews from Mike Harding (BBCRadio 2), Verity Sharpe (BBC Radio 3) as well as publications such as The Guardian, Uncut, and Froots Mag.
