LUCY WOODWARD Biography
Born in England, raised in Amsterdam and New York, singer/songwriter Lucy Woodward began her professional music career in her late teens as a session vocalist. The daughter of a composer and an opera singer, Woodward was no stranger to music and grew up taking piano and flute lessons before concentrating on vocal studies at 14. The session work paid off and Woodward's debut, While You Can, was released by Atlantic in 2003.
"Dumb Girls," Woodward's debut single on Atlantic, was streamed by over half a million AOL subscribers via its AOL Music interactive campaign weeks before its commercial release. Already a seasoned professional of the recording studio by her early 20s, the singer's first album, While You Can, was released in the spring of 2003 to critical acclaim.
By the time she released her debut album, Lucy Woodward was a veteran of New York City's studio recording scene. She gained professional experience by providing vocals for demos of many of the top songwriters in the music industry, all the while working on her own material. Her songs reflect a certain self-assured confidence and a determination to give it all you got.
Born in England and raised in the Bronx, the singer-songwriter has taken a mix of musical influences and produced a strong and varied debut album. Ranging from funky rock grooves to smooth blue-eyed soul and pop, While You Can showcases Woodward's strong, sexy vocals and melodic songwriting skills. She puts a tougher, more mature spin on teen pop, showing promise as a new artist to keep an eye out for.
