Lucy Rash

A classically trained violinist by trade, Lucy established a decade-long career in music education, with roles in artistic programming and operations at Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, and classroom teaching (music/history). It was in 2021 that she moved to establish a practice under her own name as a Resident Artist at Gasworks Arts Park, the beautiful, natural surrounds of which have inspired her most loved works to-date.

Lucy’s practice now spans three distinct areas: composition/arrangement, live performance, and recording using strings, synthesisers, and vocals. Lucy’s arrangements and live performance work has featured in the output of artists including Ella Hooper (formerly of Killing Heidi), Jae Laffer (formerly of The Panics), Georgia Maq (Camp Cope), Watty Thompson, and others, and she has performed at venues including the Sydney Opera House, Hamer Hall, and other major venues around Australia. In 2023, Lucy’s arrangements for Watty Thompson’s debut, self-titled album premiered at #3 on the ARIA Top 40 Country Music Charts.

Lucy tours and records regularly with her own band, Raging Hormones (alongside Nick Manuell of Bodyjar) and a range of prolific Australian acts, and has produced freelance work for Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Sydney Symphony Orchestra, and more.
