Lucie Hendry Concert

Ticket information at www.luciehendry.com

Scottish harpist Lucie Hendry returns to the stage this September with her trio, sharing

music from her upcoming second album, Ashes to Art. Blending the Scottish folk tradition

with the vibrant Nordic contemporary scene, Lucie’s innovative, nature-inspired music

reflects her life between Scotland and Denmark.

She is joined by Scottish guitarist Chris Amer and Danish drummer Christoffer Skovhus.

Together, they bring Lucie’s original compositions to life with intricate melodies, rich

rhythmic textures, and a cross-cultural spirit that honours tradition and embraces curiosity.

Following the success of her debut solo album Land of Eden — released in June 2023,

receiving national airplay in both the UK and Denmark — Lucie and her trio have

performed at major festivals including Celtic Connections, Stonehaven Folk Festival,

Godtfolk, Copenhagen Jazz Festival, and Aarhus Jazz Festival.

A rising voice in contemporary folk, Lucie was a finalist in BBC Radio Scotland’s Young

Traditional Musician of the Year 2021 and a nominee for ‘Up and Coming Artist of the

Year’ at the 2023 Scots Trad Music Awards. With Ashes to Art, she continues to chart a

bold, expressive path for the lever harp in modern folk music.
