Lucy Kaplansky is an acclaimed singer-songwriter of rare talent, “a truly gifted

performer with a bag full of enchanting songs” (The New Yorker) and “the

troubadour laureate of modern city folk” (The Boston Globe). She has released

eight critically acclaimed CDs, two of which were awarded Best Pop Album of the

year by the Association for Independent Music. National Public Radio described her

 

2012 album “Reunion” as “a master class in making the personal universal,” and

her most recent album “Everyday Street” has been dubbed“ spare and luminous”

and “remarkable.”

 

Lucy was part of folk supergroup Cry Cry Cry with Dar Williams and Richard Shindell

(which The New Yorker dubbed “a collection of lovely harmonizing and pure

emotion”). Their album was an astonishing success in stores and on radio resulting

in a national tour of sold-out concerts, as well as a national sold-out reunion tour

in 2018.

 

Her recording of Roxy Music’s “More than This” has over 12 million streams on

Spotify, and she has been featured on NPR’s All Things Considered, Weekend

Edition, and Morning Edition as well as BBC Radio 2 and 4, and CBS Sunday

Morning, and has sung harmony on albums by Suzanne Vega, Bryan Ferry, Nanci

Griffith and Shawn Colvin. Her song “Guilty as Sin” was featured in the NBC

television show “Ed,” and her vocals were featured in the Tom Cruise film “The

Firm.” She will be releasing her latest album, “Last Days of Summer,” written and

recorded during the pandemic, in Spring 2022.
