Lucy’s connection with music first began when she joined a professional all-girls choir at the age of ten, performing for royalty and rockstars alike. With straight-laced self discipline and harmonising mastered, Lucy also turned her attention to expanding her musical talents; adding piano, guitar and banjo to her repertoire. A desire to create music of her own followed, and Lucy’s strength as a songwriter was quickly realised.
Over the past three years Lucy has consistently been recognised for her talents as a performer and as a songwriter. She was a 2014 finalist in the Vanda & Young Song Competition for her song ‘On My Own’. She was 2013 recipient of ‘Youth Song of the Year’, awarded by Songs Alive Australia, and the winner of Sydney City’s ‘Our Kind of Music’ competition for her original song ‘There’s Light’. She was also a member of the final 20 candidates for the prestigious Talent Development Program 2013, and a 2012 heat finalist for Telstra’s Road to Discovery competition.
Following on from her ‘Lady’ EP album release, Lucy Neville will continue to develop her poetic pop style and enrapture audiences with her commanding performances.

Blue eyes mean I'm beautiful
And maybe we can spend the night here baby
We don't have to talk about it at all
And roses mean you're sauvy my baby
And brown eyes mean you feel me now
And maybe I can take some time to forget it
And we don't have to talk about it
We don't have to talk about it at all
White sheets mean I'm innocent baby
Blue eyes mean I'm beautiful
And maybe we can spend the night here baby
We don't have to talk about it at all
And roses mean you're sauvy my baby
And brown eyes mean you feel me now
And maybe I can take some time to forget it
And we don't have to talk about it
(We don't have to talk)
We don't have to talk about it at all
I'll just sleep here under the rug
As long as you're my baby
And I don't know if I could call this love but
I know that I'm your lady
(Lady)
Liberation waits for me since I was only seventeen, lady
Liberty is all I need since I was only seventeen
Since I was only seventeen
Pale skin like a china doll, baby
And green eyes like I feel you now
And maybe this could be all yours my honey
We don't have to talk about it all
Sunshine lights the heavens, baby
But blame it on the night before
And maybe I can leave before it gets worse
Liberation waits for me since I was only seventeen, lady
Liberty is all I need since I was only seventeen
Since I was only seventeen
Pale skin like a china doll, baby
And green eyes like I feel you now
And maybe this could be all yours my honey
We don't have to talk about it all
Sunshine lights the heavens, baby
But blame it on the night before
And maybe I can leave before it gets worse
But we don't have to talk about it all
We don't have to talk about it at all cos'
I'll just sleep here under the rug
As long as you're my baby
And I don't know if I could call this love but
I know that I'm your lady
(Lady)I'll just sleep here under the rug
As long as you're my baby
And I don't know if I could call this love but
I know that I'm your lady
(Lady)
Liberation waits for me since I was only seventeen, lady
Liberty is all I need since I was only seventeen
