Lucy Kaplansky started out singing in Chicago folk music clubs as a teenager.

Kaplansky draws from personal experiences for her lyrical subject matter. Universal themes of loss, longing and loneliness, as well as love, joy, friendship and hope, are all propelled musically by roots-based instruments including acoustic guitars, mandolin, piano, and percussion. She has released nine solo albums and several collaborations with others, including Dar Williams, Richard Shindell, John Gorka, and Eliza Gilkyson.
