Next Stage Arts is proud to present Lucy Wainwright Roche with special guest Suzzy Roche, in a Mother’s Day weekend concert. Suzzy and Lucy are a mother/daughter duo with impressive accomplishments in their own separate careers. Their most recent joint release is Mud and Apples. (2016)
Before establishing herself as a solo artist, Suzzy Roche spent two decades singing alongside her sisters in one of folk music’s most celebrated bands, The Roches. Daughter Lucy took to the family business after graduating from Oberlin College, singing backup for her brother Rufus, opening for her father Loudon Wainwright III, and touring with Dar Williams, Neko Case, and Amos Lee.
Lucy Wainwright Roche has been compared to Joni Mitchell and Patty Griffin on NPR. She was born in NYC into an influential musical family. She rebelled against the family business by teaching elementary school for several years before getting involved in music. Since 2007, Lucy has released two EPs and a studio album entitled Lucy (2010), toured the U.S., Canada, and Europe, and has performed with a number of musicians including Over the Rhine. Lucy is known for her crystal clear voice and straightforward, funny stage presence. When she’s not on tour, Lucy lives in Brooklyn, NY.
