About
The bands name might be Lucy Bland but their music is anything but. Hailing from the rain capital of the country Seattle, Washington, they let the rain inspire their music rather than drown them out. Seattle is so intimately connected to water its influence seeps into every aspect of life. We channel those long winters the rainy days, and the ocean into our music. The band describes their self sound as indie with a splash of folktronic. Never heard of folktronic; never believed it could ever be combined with indie? All you have to do is give Lucy Bland a listen and all the burning questions in your heart will be answered. In songs like Brown Sky the band combines the lyrical qualities of indie with the beats of electronic. The result is a lush combination of genres that creates a world and keeps the listener hooked.
Sound
Their music tends toward the introspective but never self indulgent. They believe Music is a mirrored reflection of the self. Songs are snapshots and portraits of moments in time. The bands job therefore, is to, Create a fabric of sound that portrays these moments tells these stories, with each instrument weaving a color into the picture.
Inspiration
Lucy Blands rainy day inspired music has been noticed by the likes of music review site South of Mainstream who said with the vocals of Cat Biell surrounded by some cello guitar, and keyboard, the music just seems to flow so easily. It is perfect for that quiet evening or lazy afternoon. Enjoy. After an in-studio performance at Seattle based radio station KEXP, DJ Sean Nelson said That was so good I almost think speaking would be a disgrace.
Current Projects
Always looking for inspiration and writing new music the band will be recording their first full length album scheduled to be released in the fall of 2006. Their debut EP Lucy Blands First Recital is currently available on iTunes and CDBaby.

Hi Cat
I like the new pictures. Just thought I'd drop by and let you know that I have a new song for you to listen to "No More" is the first song to be released on MusicForte from the Time CD. I hope you can find time to listen to it. It is a soft guitar ballad which about the end of a relationship.
Best Wishes

Hi Cat
What you may have missed!
Just added "When Death Divides" I wrote this song after losing my Aunty Bet. I loved her very much and she was the closest to me, closer than my own mother. She was a very special person.
Also you might not have heard "I Want You Back"
I hope you like the darker songs so far, from "Where do I Go?" I have featured
"Nothing Goes As Planned" a song about living with poverty and the confusion, the human struggle to survive.
"Man With A Gun" Gave me a lot of positive feedback to which is probably my darkest song yet.
This weeks song is "Always Be The One" which deals with the frustration of keeping your loved one knowing that you do love her."
If you haven't had a chance to listen please do. Next week will feature the last of the songs from "Where Do I Go? as in September I will be featuring songs from the album "Time" which will be available to buy on CD from the middle of next month.
Best wishes
