Musician, music teacher and Malmsbury local of four years, Lucy Wise loves building community building through music, and is involved in many local events and projects.
She has performed at the Malmsbury Fayre, has produced several concerts at The Malmsbury Town Hall, and she co-facilitates a monthly Irish music session at the Provincial Table in Malmsbury.
This autumn-winter, Lucy will also be involved in Heart Songs Community Choir, an exciting collaboration with local choir leader Andrew Price and the Macedon Ranges Shire Council, in which her songs and some well-loved covers will be arranged for an 80-piece choir and performed at the Kyneton Town Hall.
Last year was a busy year for Lucy. In November she won ‘Best Folk Work’ for her latest album, Into The Blue, and she toured the album through Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania.
Lucy will be launching a new EP, Yearning, at festivals this year, including Newstead Live Music Festival (January 25-28), Yackandandah Folk Festival and The National Folk Festival in Canberra.
Alongside all of her performing, Lucy has established a new music school called Magpie Music, where she teaches face-to-face, one-on-one lessons in voice, guitar and ukulele at her home studio in Malmsbury.
