Lucy Isabel To Play 31 Shows In October
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) New Jersey-born and Nashville-based singer-songwriter Lucy Isabel is hitting the road in October on tour for a full month of shows, and her travels will see her visiting the Southeast, Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast, as she brings the songs from her most recent album, Rambling Stranger, to life on concert stages. For three of the shows, Isabel will be livestreaming online from surprise locations along the way. (See full tour schedule below.)

"Over the last few years of touring, I've often been struck by how different one show can be from the next," says Isabel. "Sometimes it can be draining, but it always keeps me on my toes. When I decided to plan this tour, the idea was to experience a ton of different types of shows, while also sharing Rambling Stranger with as many people as possible."

Isabel is touring in support of Rambling Stranger (which came out June 14, 2019). Produced by Jared Anderson and recorded in a series of live, inspired takes, Rambling Stranger shows the full scope of Isabel's songwriting. These 10 songs are filled with images from an adulthood lived on the run: a shuttered army fort along the Jersey Shore; a mountain range outside of Seattle; a road leading to an unknown destination, promising nothing but the unexpected for anyone willing to take it. And Isabel, of course, can't resist taking those paths.

On 2019's Rambling Stranger, Isabel's classic-sounding folk croon - that evokes everyone from Brandi Carlile to Judy Collins - shares the spotlight with accordion, keyboards, and numerous stringed instruments throughout. "I was always looking for somewhere else to be," says Isabel about the album title. "A rambling stranger is who I am to this day, even though I've now found a home for myself. My bed is in Nashville. My husband is there. But there's always a part of me that's looking to chase down something new, and it keeps me moving."

Equally inspired by the Americana community of her Nashville home and the boardwalk culture of her native New Jersey, Isabel has been a traveling musician for years, ever since she shelved an acting career in New York City and moved to Tennessee. Living in Nashville motivated her, but it was the road - where she built her audience one show at a time - that sharpened her songwriting. She wrote folk songs, heartland roots-rockers, and acoustic ballads. She wrote about her husband; about the changing landscape of her hometown back east; about the wanderlust that kept her moving night after night, traveling from the listening rooms of America to the pubs of Australia and back again.

All the while, she also made time to visit the recording studio, releasing her first EP, 2016's Along the Way, within two years of graduating from Yale with a degree in Theater Studies. Another EP, KANE, followed in 2017, stocked with stories about her maternal grandmother's family. It was during her senior year at Yale that her work with one of the university's professional a cappella groups prompted her to shift her focus from acting to music.

Press praise for Lucy Isabel's Rambling Stranger:
Take Effect Reviews album review: "Lucy Isabel knows her way around a tune where Americana, rock, roots and folk ideas are never in short supply, and her strong lyrical imagery helps shape this debut album into a display of stunning creativity. …Rambling Stranger is an intricate, soulful and adventurous outing, where each song is a journey of its own, and we should all be grateful we're along for the lovely, heartfelt ride."

Adobe & Teardrops album review: "The first thing that jumped out at me about Lucy Isabel's Rambling Stranger is its sense of adventure. Isabel truly embodies the full sense of Americana -- no two songs here are exactly the same. Isabel glides between bar band rock, country, folk, LA-dappled psychedelia, and traditional ballads with grace. …Isabel's voice sits somewhere between Carole King and Courtney Marie Andrews in its delicacy and boldness. Her songwriting has the same directness and humor as Nashville contemporaries Erin Rae, Caroline Spence, and Becky Warren."

Americana Highways album review: "It's not easy to pin Isabel to any particular style. There are elements of country… There are also elements of rock, including some sounds that bring The Band to mind. However, the one constant is the strength of the lyrics. …This album is a collection of 10 beautifully complex and wonderfully arranged songs that highlight the lyrics and vocal abilities of Isabel."

PopMatters.com "How It Goes" video premiere: "Providing ample room for her vocals to resonate, the singer-songwriter soars with a bluesy gravitas at the song's crescendo, her band invoking gospel and country elements into the song as it rises. An empowering song that encourages listeners to keep their head held high amidst tough situations…"

Bsides & Badlands "Something New" video premiere: "...folk singer-songwriter Lucy Isabel tunes her emotions into the transitory nature of existence. Her 'Something New' music video untangles feelings of uncertainty, weary angst for something more and pangs in her core of needing to recharge back home. Her tears plop upon fiddle and guitar in oceanic shapes, and without that vital realization, she, perhaps, could never have stumbled upon such gorgeous musical flight. ...[her] voice is a splendid, sky-tearing routine that strikes at the heart of life and our own many travels."

Glide Magazine "False Prophet" track premiere: "With a mix of soul and folk, Isabel writes with a straightforward honesty and it's hard not to think of fellow New Jersey truth-teller Bruce Springsteen. With subtle musical textures provided by the slide guitar, organ, and soft harmonies, it's hard not to get swept up in the emotion of the song. Ultimately the song showcases the growth of an exciting songwriter."

Independent Clauses "How It Goes" track premiere: "This song is a long series of high moments, pregnant pauses, and exultant refrains, led by Isabel's powerful voice and underscored by a blazing organ. It's the sort of song where you hope the final chorus is just everybody going for it at once, and lo, so it is. ...the song feel[s] like a warm, comfy shirt. ...a big, powerful blast of folk-rock glee."

The Deli Nashville show preview: "The album has hints of Americana, blues rock, and soul, all molding together to form a powerful heartland sound that channels the feeling of endless exploration, both physical and spiritual."
