Posted October 27, 200618 yr Lucie Silvas is an artist that creeps up on you. Not in a scary, serial killer way, but in that she's been around for quite a while now, and is slowly beginning to make her mark upon the charts and the industry. She's played with Gary Barlow, written for Will Young, and yet she's still not very well known. Perhaps this is time for things to change? Silvas' new single 'Last Year' isn't hugely revelatory but it does give her a firm standing in the world of solo female singer-songwriters. It's a nice track, and she's got a nice voice. Although this is possibly not enough to gain a worldwide following just yet, everyone has to start somewhere, and Silvas has been working her arse off to try and achieve her goals in the past few years. She's not half bad, and every track you hear from her shows some form of improvement. Silvas has great potential - and 'Last Year' is a good track - but something still needs to click for everyone to tap into her sound. 4stars/5stars From digitalspy.com

November 12, 200618 yr http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds37993.html Great interview! I especially love this part :lol: "When I'm drunk, I'm a bit hyperactive and start singing and shouting. I'm never going to be able to function the next day. So, I leave my drunken nights till the last night of the tour. My band love drink, oh my God. You see riders for my tour and people are like 'God, she drinks like a fish', but actually it's my band's fault! They like asking for wine and vodka and beer non-stop, and I don't get to drink any of it. We do stay up late, we don't really get much sleep. It's certainly not a book and a cup of tea but we do have quiet nights as well as heavy nights." Because I can see the images in my head :lol:
