Lucy is a virtuosic accordionist, jazz singer, and multi-instrumentalist. Lucy's singing is influenced by the great vocalists of early jazz music. Her unique voice is often compared to jazz singers such as Billie Holiday, Bessie Smith, and Amy Winehouse.

 

She is a self taught jazz musician who focusses on jazz accordion, singing, and violin, though also plays piano, cello and guitar.

 

She came to jazz accordion through several years of playing in the street with different jazz bands as a travelling street performer, busking her way through Europe, East Asia and the United States, before moving to Montreal and performing and recording with various jazz and swing groups at many notorious venues such as Le Verre Boutelle, Quai Des Brumes, la Casona, and for swing dance schools and other. She also lived in New Orleans was influenced by jazz and early American music.

She has a BFA in painting from Concordia University and a background in professional dance training, performance art, theatre, creative writing and flamenco dance, which she studied for years including 3 months in Granada for advanced intensives while performing as a musician.

Lucy now lives off a youth artists grant which pays for her living expenses for one year, and to record her next album.
