BIO
Lucy Francesca Dron is a Brisbane based singer/songwriter and guitarist who has developed as an eclectic artist with a distinctive style.
Lucy Francesca Dron grew up in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia in a family of musicians. She started studying classical cello when she was around 7 years old and has also achieved high level examinations in contemporary Voice. At 14, Lucy began recording lo-fi covers of her favourite indie and alternative artists in her grandparents garage, posting them to YouTube and attracting a wide following, especially for her rendition of Human Sadness by her all time greatest influence - Julian Casablancas and the Voidz.
After moving to the Music Industry College (MIC) for her final 2 years of schooling, Lucy branched out into song writing, and in this context Lucy released her first EP -Eloqium, recorded and produced by her music teacher Charles Duggan.
Since graduating from MIC, Lucy became a regular solo performer appearing almost every week in and around Brisbane at some of the city's most popular music venues including The Foundry, The Milk Factory, Ric's Bar, and Blackbear Lodge to name a few.
In 2018, Lucy forged a collaboration and highly successful musical connection with fellow MIC graduate Tex Keane on drums and her brother Tom Dron on bass. They premiered as a band supporting Hope D at The Foundry in 2019 and since then have embarked on recording projects and many more live performances. Lucy and the band supported The Delta Riggs at the Brisbane leg of their national tour in March 2021.
In 2022, Lucy extended her musical collaboration to include Abigail Lula on drums and Cam Bower on synth and lead guitar. In 2023, Lucy was invited to support Slowdive at the Princess Theatre, on the Brisbane leg of their national tour - a momentous honour for Lucy and the band.
Lucy's mesmerising vocals express her raw, honest and 'from the heart' lyrics. Supported by a richly harmonic musical language, packed with emotional punch, Lucy and the band's eclectic style is a fusion of post punk and indie rock infused with echoes of jazz.

"Playful and filled to the brim with charisma, I really enjoy the way Lucy rhythmically phases her melody lines and the sick way that the music whirls and spins around her in perfect harmony." 4 / 5 Stars (Nkechi Anele, Triple J)
"you know when you watch someone dance and in your head you're like, 'oh yep i'd never be able to do that' and 'how did they think to do that move'. this is the sonic equivalent as you veer around in this freeform, psych, jazz world and i'm just here watching in awe."
4 / 5 Stars (Declan Byrne, Triple J)
"Big fuzzy guitars, thick basslines and action packed drums make for an indie anthem in the making." (AAA Backstage)
"Lucy and her band blend alternative and indie rock vibes with her velvety yet piercing jazz-styled vocals." (Scenestr)
"‘What Is Next?’ is a refreshing construction of rock that appeals with that 90’s vibe with the entertainment factor that just kicks."
