Lucy (Cooper B. Handy)

LUCY (Cooper B. Handy) brings an experimental, raw, and genre-blending performance to Songbyrd Music House, with WifiGawd supporting. Born in Cape Cod, Handy began releasing music as LUCY in 2009 and has since built a substantial catalog through prolific self-released music and videos, often created and shared with little polish and in near real time.

Now based in Western Massachusetts, Handy developed a cult following on the DIY circuit by performing in basements, warehouses, and other unconventional spaces across the country. His music is eccentric, earnest, and sometimes abrasive, drawing on GarageBand production, sample packs, and synth sounds. His work emphasizes creative exploration, while his lyrics deliver thoughtful observations in deceptively simple one-liners.
