Rock and World

After several years working quietly under the radar, Thorne’s 2009 release Black Across The Field brought her to the attention of a much broader audience. This album was shortlisted for the prestigious Australian Music Prize; was awarded Best Roots Album of 2009 by the Sydney Morning Herald; and had a song selected for inclusion on a Universal Music Group compilation alongside Leonard Cohen and Radiohead. Since then Lucie has been touring far and wide in a sensational duo collaboration with legendary drummer Hamish Stuart (2). Their 2011 release Bonfires in Silver City was hailed as “World-class” (AMG); “an album of powerful intimacy and poetic deliverance” (Life & Style Magazine) that “…reveals a subtlety and craft that eclipses Thorne’s prior work” (Rhythms Magazine). With Everything Sings Tonight, Thorne & Stuart truly hone their exceptional duet sound. At once bold, poetic and musically adventurous, Everything Sings Tonight traverses an expansive sonic palette, marking an inspired creative benchmark for the pair. Recorded predominately in Berlin and featuring heavyweight guests including Bo Ramsey, Chris Abrahams and Greg Brown, Everything Sings Tonight shines with “atmospheric, innovative… brilliance” (**** Sydney Morning Herald). It’s a mighty ride; and one that’s buoyed by that signature warmth and intimacy for which their live shows have become so renowned. Along with a remarkably consistent Australian touring schedule, Lucie also tours regularly across much of the European and North American continents.
