Biography |
Lucy Woodward (born October 27, 1977) is a singer/songwriter
commonly known for the Top 40 hit "Dumb Girls", released in
February 2003. After the single's release, Woodward toured
around the world in support of her debut album 'While You
Can' (2003). Soon after, Atlantic Records merged and dropped
many mid-level artists from their label, including Woodward.
Lucy was born in London, but was raised in Amsterdam and New
York City. She has a very musical background: her British
father is a composer and conductor and her New Yorker mother
is a musicologist and an opera singer. Lucy attended a
public high school in the Bronx. She started off singing in
jazz cafes and singing for tips or dinner. "You sing with a
piano player and a tip jar on top of the piano," she said in
an interview on NZGirl.
In 2005, Woodward proved there is life after labels when she
won a BMI Pop Award for writing the hit single "(There's
Gotta Be) More to Life" featured on Stacie Orrico's self
titled album. She also recently appeared on the major motion
picture soundtracks 'What a Girl Wants', 'Ice Princess' and
collaborated with David Schommer on the soundtrack for
'Accepted'.
Lucy's most recent accomplishment is the release of her
first independent album: "Lucy Woodward... is Hot and
Bothered" which can be heard on iTunes. The single 'Use What
I Got' has been featured on the 2007 Lifetime Television
movie 'Write and Wrong' starring Kirstie Alley. |
