LP version. Essex-based singer songwriter Lucy Kitt presents her debut full-length album, Stand By, on Wineberry Records. A beautifully crafted self-penned gem, the album draws influence from the golden age of songwriting emanating from Laurel Canyon in the late '60s/early '70s. Stand By was recorded at London's Soup Studios and features contributions from Sam Beer, Dave Holmes, and Pat Kenneally. From the age of 16 she formed a riot girl grunge band Ostara with her cousin and two friends. Performing around the gritty nightclubs and bars of the East end of London is where Lucy found her love of playing live. During her university days in Canterbury, Lucy started developing her song writing and soon became a feature on the local music scene. Strongly influenced by '70s folk rock albums she heard growing up: artists like Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young, Lucy writings are honest, and heartfelt accounts of her personal experiences during this poignant chapter of her life. Propelled by her semi-finalist status at the 2006 BBC Radio 2 Young Folk awards, the live music scene beckoned, and Lucy has supported a host of musical talent ever since, including Cara Dillon, Turin Brakes, The Unthanks, Pete Mollinari, and Nick Mulvey. Major UK festival slots have included Cambridge Folk Festival, The Isle of Wight Festival, Secret Garden Party, and Lounge on the Farm, and Red Rooster Festival. Having won the 2014 Gibson/Sundance song writing competition, Lucy's songs have been placed firmly on the musical map. She has played gigs around the world, including Northern California, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, and Germany. The hugely successful internet sessions recorded for "Mahogany", "Balcony TV", and "On't Sofa", provides a pathway for the world to discover Lucy's beautiful, vibrant, self-penned lyrics. 90,000 Soundcloud listeners eagerly await her debut album - she is now in the position where all this hard work could really start to shine.
