With a husky soprano that evokes the sounds of Kate Bush and Feist, Lucy Rose is the newest British songbird poised to conquer hearts and minds around the world. With a new album under her belt and her star firmly in the ascendant, Warwickshire songstress Lucy Rose is making her own destiny and shaping her future like no other new artist.
Only 23 years old, Rose sprung to fame singing on Bombay Bicycle Club’s albums “Flaws” and “A Different Kind of Fix.” After arriving in London from rural Warwickshire ostensibly to read geography at University College London, Rose instead sought out open mic nights and other musicians, performed constantly and worked to establish herself in the London scene. Her tireless dedication has paid off first in supporting roles, but now more and more she is the main event. On the back of her pure voice and heartfelt songwriting, Lucy Rose has met with success that major label-backed musicians only dream about, while sticking to a fully DIY ethos.
Gearing up to tour in support of her first full-length album Like I Used To, Lucy Rose is in the vanguard of the next generation of English singers in the vein of Adele, Ellie Goulding and Florence Welch. Split Works is proud and delighted to be bringing Lucy Rose to China for her first shows. We’ll see you there.

如果你对Kate Bush与Feist那飘忽不定又总能抓住人心的声音情有独钟，那么Lucy Rose正是你所需要的一道冬日暖汤。来自英国沃里克郡的Lucy Rose在今年5月签约Columbia唱片公司之后，9月刚刚发行了自己的处女大碟《Like I Used To》，她迅猛的上升势头已经让她在英国乐坛备受瞩目，受到越来越多歌迷的拥戴。
还只有23岁，Rose的星运自客座出现在英国摇滚乐队Bombay Bicycle Club专辑《Flaws》和《A Different Kind of Fix》起就不断上升。自从离开沃里克郡的乡下来到伦敦，对于在伦敦大学学院的地理系学业她多少有些漫不经心，相反地Rose与其它音乐人频繁出没在open mic之夜，所有这些表现都为她在伦敦音乐圈立足奠定了基础。她不懈的努力终以客座歌手的形式给予了回报，但现在，她的个人表现，正逐渐成为聚光灯的焦点所在。先是歌曲”Don’t You Worry”被收录在了当红英剧《Skins》第六季，后来则被也邀请和Bombay Bicycle Club和Noah And The Whale一起进行加拿大巡演，然后在今年还参加了Latitude Festival和Bestival等多个大型音乐节。在Lucy Rose纯真的歌声和掏心掏肺之言的背后，她所取得的成功，是其他签约主流唱片公司的音乐人都朝思暮想的。而这一切，都全凭她自己的音乐天赋和努力勤奋。
如今在英国媒体眼中，Lucy Rose正在成为与Adele、Ellie Goulding和Florence Welch同一阵列的下一代英国歌姬中的领军人物。Split Works很荣幸能在2012年末呈献Lucy Rose的首度中国巡演。相信这一定是你在寒冷冬日里不愿错过的温暖现场。
