Lucy Crisp unveils the very personal '65 Roses'

After 3 years in the making, Lucy Crisp released her debut EP on November 3d: '65 Roses'. She is also a hidden disability and mental health activist. '65 Roses' is a testimony of Lucy's life, who has Cystic Fibrosis which is a genetic condition that affects 10,000 people in the UK. The creation of the EP has been supported by Youth Music's NextGen campaign and by the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

Lucy introduces herself and opens up with this debut EP. She delivers a true reflection on the challenges she has gone through both on a physical and mental level.

Lucy's sound has been influenced by synth-pop stars like Imogen Heap and Ellie Goulding. With a talented group of local producers, she has created a nostalgic pop sound that echoes the life challenges of the 80s which still resonates today.

'65 Roses' invites us into Lucy's space; a space that is a genuine and vulnerable expression of herself.

'65 Roses' speaks on themes that were relevant 30+ years ago and that are still relevant today like complicated friendships and mental health packaged in a 80s aesthetic. Thanks to Lucy's dynamic vocals, the project has developed into an uplifting experience despite the heavy themes that are explored in the lyrics.

Lucy Crisp's EP is not just about cool and catchy songs - which they definitely are - but it's also a mean to create impactful storytelling.
