Lucy Wise: Salt Album Tour 2026

An unforgettable evening with award-winning songwriter Lucy Wise - Live in the Lyre

Lucy Wise, creates music that gently opens a door you didn’t realise was closed.

Blending contemporary folk with pop-inflected melodies, intricate guitar work and poetic lyricism, Lucy’s songs make space for reflection on longing, connection and the inner lives we carry. Originally from South West Australia and now based in Central Victoria, Lucy has spent over 15 years building a career defined by craft, curiosity and emotional honesty.

By late 2026, she will have released five albums and two EPs, including her forthcoming record Salt. Inspired by artists such as Joni Mitchell and Madison Cunningham, her work sits between the intimacy of traditional folk and the clarity of modern pop.

A seasoned performer, she has toured extensively across Australia, New Zealand, the UK and the US, and appeared at festivals including Woodford, Port Fairy and the National Folk Festival. Her work has earned multiple accolades, including Solo Artist of the Year at the 2024 Australian Folk Music Awards.

Diving deep into 90s pop and alt rock sounds, Salt draws on music Lucy heard on the radio as a kid, including artists such as Lucinda Williams, Sheryl Crow and Crowded House.

Salt explores diverse topics, from op shopping, to regional Australian life, to power dynamics, to imagining people at a party as glowing sea creatures. Lucy tells stories of everyday moments that shape us with humour and a whole lotta heart.
