British singer-songwriter Lucy Kitt presents her highly-anticipated second album, Telling Me, a deeply personal collection that shifts focus from introspection to storytelling, capturing the lives and struggles of those closest to her. Drawing from her love of '70s Laurel Canyon folk, '90s indie rock, and country music, Kitt crafts narratives that blend her own experiences with compassionate observations of loved ones. Based on a raw acoustic "three chords and the truth" style of songwriting that ripples throughout, the album expands with full-band arrangements that give a huge range and richness to the sound. Though influenced by American musical traditions, the Essex-native maintains her distinctive voice and authenticity, ensuring the music remains unmistakably her own. Following her 2018 debut Stand By, this new record represents a more mature approach to songwriting, written during her early 30s and completed in the 2021 lockdown -- a storybook of songs capturing that moment in time. Musically, Telling Me showcases Kitt's stripped-down acoustic foundations, while incorporating fuller arrangements that blend her love of Nick Drake, Bob Dylan, Gram Parsons, Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez, with music she loved as a teenager such as The Lemonheads and Veruca Salt. The album features collaborations with an impressive roster of musicians, including Jay Starkey on drums, Nashville-based pedal steel virtuoso Spencer Cullum, Treetop Flyer's Sam Beer and longtime collaborator Pat Kenneally on drums and piano. Recorded between 2021-2023 at London's Lightship 95 studio at Trinity Buoy Wharf, the album was co-produced and engineered by Dave Holmes, with some musicians contributing remotely from Nashville and London.

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.
