Lucy Kaplansky is an acclaimed singer-songwriter of rare talent, “a truly gifted performer with a bag full of enchanting songs” (The New Yorker). She has released eight critically acclaimed CDs and has twice been awarded best Pop Album of the year by the Association for Independent Music. Folk Alley called Lucy's latest album, "Everyday Street," "remarkable."

Lucy was part of folk supergroup Cry Cry Cry with Dar Williams and Richard Shindell, and their album was an astonishing success in stores and on radio resulting in a national tour of sold-out concerts.

Lucy has also been featured on NPR’s All Things Considered with Melissa Block, Weekend Edition With Scott Simon, and Morning Edition with Bob Edwards as well as BBC Radio 2 and CBS Sunday Morning, and has sung harmony on albums by Suzanne Vega, Bryan Ferry (Roxy Music), Nanci Griffith and Shawn Colvin.
