Clearly a member of music family royalty, Lucy Wainwright Roche released her first full-length album, titled, LUCY late last year. LUCY has proved to be well worth the wait. Special guest singers include pals Girlyman and the Indigo Girls as well as The Roches and Loudon Wainwright and Kelly Hogan. Backed by great musicians including: Steuart Smith (The Eagles) and David Mansfield, and produced by LWR and Stewart Lerman, the album features ten new original songs and a cover of a classic Paul Simon song, plus a surprising bonus track which features This American Life's Ira Glass. Her tales of life as seen from the road are masterfully told. She moves in and out of stories and song, creating a unique tapestry, weaving the ordinary into the magical, and she brings us all along with her. You won't hear a false note from this shining star. She can simultaneously be heartbreaking in a good way -- and funny --Lucy's a masterful performer. She's a straight shooter, simple and direct, with loads of charm, but watch out, her hauntingly angelic voice and wickedly perceptive songs will get you every time. "Sincere and raw at times recalling Joni Mitchell and Patti Griffin, Roche's bittersweet voice jumps out; she paints an indelible image." - NPR Song of the Day "
