Bobbi Lu

Imagine starving yourself over 4 years as some kind of protest to the invention of smartphones. Sounds pretty stupid, right? Which is why British born Lucy Ryan preferred to leave that part of herself behind and move to Bruges, following love, the opposite to what she’d been chasing back home.

That was a decade ago. Now, as DIY bedroom producer Bobbi Lu, she’s intertwining piano melodies with deep crunchy bass, electronica and samples, coming together in a dystopian and mysterious sound. Radiohead meeting FKA Twigs, or Jockstrap dancing with Saya Grey. A signing to the Mayway label of acts like The Haunted Youth, Meskerem Mees and Ão, she’s played a bunch of gigs to rave reviews, including festivals like The Great Escape (UK), Fifty Lab (BE), Grasnapolsky (NL) and Left of the Dial (NL), while also opening for Sylvie Kreusch and The Haunted Youth.

Looking to the future, her debut album comes out in October, and with a new duo set-up her live shows are going to be engaging, ethereal and energetic.
