Lucy Wainwright Roche

In 2015, Roche opened for her brother Rufus Wainwright on his Australia tour, where he premiered a song about her, "Lucy's Blue". On the tour, Roche shared a song from an album of "dark lullabies" that she and sister Martha Wainwright were working on.

Two of her songs, "Once In" and "Starting Square" are featured on the soundtrack of the 2013 movie The Last Keepers.

Lucy has toured as an opening act for the Indigo Girls, and the duo is featured on a couple of songs on Lucy's self-titled record released in October 2010. Lucy has also opened for such acts as the Dar Williams, Girlyman, Amos Lee, her father Loudon Wainwright III, and half-brother Rufus Wainwright. Lucy also has sung backup for Grammy-nominated artist Neko Case, including an appearance with Case on the Late Show with David Letterman.

Roche released her debut album, Lucy, in October 2010.

In early 2009, Lucy's song "Snare Drum" won the 8th Annual Independent Music Awards for Best Folk/Singer-Songwriter Song. In 2008, Roche was one of the winners of the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival's "Emerging Artist" competition. Again in 2009, she was one of six winners of the Grassy Hill Kerrville Folk Festival's "New Folk Singer/Songwriter Competition".

Roche initially chose to bypass the family career choice of music in order to teach elementary school in Durham, NC and New York City for several years. In 2007, she made the decision to pursue a career in music full-time. This decision is chronicled in her "Spring Song" which appears on her EP 8 More, released in 2008. Also featured on this record is a duet of Bruce Springsteen's "Hungry Heart" with actress Martha Plimpton.

Prior to 8 More, Roche released her first EP in 2007 titled 8 Songs which featured "Saddest Sound", a song that appeared on the television show Lipstick Jungle.

Roche was born and raised in Greenwich Village, New York City. She attended PS 41 in Manhattan and high school at Saint Ann's School in Brooklyn, New York, graduating in 1999. She then attended Oberlin College in Ohio, graduating in 2003 with a degree in creative writing. In 2006 Roche received her master's degree in general education from Bank Street College of Education in Manhattan. She currently resides in Brooklyn with her dog Maeby.
