Lucy Rose (UK) with Special Guest Matthew Smith

February 23, 2018 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm NZDT

$25.00

Playing in Christchurch for her first time Lucy Rose joins us for one very special night. With just her acoustic guitar and supported by Matthew Smith this will be some show!

Lucy Rose has gradually become one of the most respected and influential of the new generation of UK artists. Since moving from her home in Warwickshire at the start of the decade she has followed her own path through the indie and acoustic scenes.

In 2011 her trio of self-released singles – ‘Middle Of The Bed’, ‘Scar’ and ‘Redface’ – invented their own world of uniquely emotive post-acoustic pop. Relentlessly touring through 2012 and 2103 she connected with a hugely cross sectioned audience and manned the merch stall every night. As a friend and fan of the band she toured with Bombay Bicycle Club and sang on their records. Her debut album for Columbia ‘Like I Used To’ was recorded in the living room of her parents house and produced by Charlie Hugall. It beautifully mined her growing up years and expanded on her girl-with-acoustic guitar roots.Videos for her 2012/13 singles – ‘Lines’, ‘Bikes’ and ‘Shiver’ – were in turn inventive, playful and moving and the songs made their own space on UK radio playlists. Finding herself regularly asked to sing on other people’s tracks she said no to nearly everyone, only agreeing to contribute vocals on tracks by Ghostpoet, The Manic Street Preachers (and the Bombays).
