There is a magical quality to Lucy Schwartz…
When Lucy sings, we are instantly drawn in by the sound of her siren voice, and led to a world uniquely her own – one that is light and dark, real and fantastical, weathered in sorrow, and colored in joy.
Lucy Schwartz is an independent music artist who has released multiple albums, EPs and singles. She has become well-known for writing and performing original songs for film & TV. When Lucy was just 18, a senior in high school, she wrote the opening and closing songs for the Meg Ryan film The Women. Since then, she has hand-tailored original songs for films & TV shows like: Twilight, Shrek, Nashville, What Maisie Knew, Mother & Child, A Man On The Inside, Post Grad, Switched At Birth and more. She also wrote the international theme song for the TV show Parenthood and co-wrote the theme songs for Almost Family and Rutherford Falls. One of the songs that she wrote for Nashville, “Black Roses”, reached No. 6 on the iTunes Country charts. Tracks from Lucy’s own albums have been featured in many films & TV shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Girls, Love and The Good Wife, to name a few. Lucy has played The Tonight Show and shared the stage with renowned artists like Elton John, Brandi Carlile, Tom Odell, Sarah McLachlan, The Civil Wars, Moby & KT Tunstall. Some folks may also recognize Lucy from her popular YouTube performance with Scary Pockets, where she sang a funk cover of Hanson’s “Mmmbop” - which garnered millions of views.
Lucy also acts, writes and directs. She has had several on-screen roles: including a co-star on “House of Lies” in a scene with Don Cheadle, and an appearance on “Arrested Development”, and an episode of the web series “Greg In LA”. Recently, Lucy created her own web series called “Worst First Date”, which she directs, writes and acts in…every episode, she plays a new character on a first date, but no matter what, it’s always the worst! She also made an animated short film called “The Monster” which she wrote, acted in, and co-directed with award-winning animator Patrick Smith. “The Monster” is now being used by therapists around the world to help children work through their fears. Lucy wrote a sci-fi short film “Timekeeper Trailer” which was directed by Ethan Feldbau (who did the lead special effects on the film “Everything Everywhere All At Once”). And Lucy has also directed and co-directed several of her own music videos.
Psssst…fun fact for Arrested Development fans: Lucy is the “British" voice behind “Mr. F” and “For British Eyes Only”.
