Hillary Capps: Lady Luck (Single, 2014)

Hillary Capps, a native Vermont singer and songwriter now based in New York City, releases her new single "Lady Luck". The song is the latest focus track off of her newest album The Wishing Forest. Capps is offering "Lady Luck" as a free download to her fans on Band Camp. With strong female influences such as Sara Bareilles and Adele, Capps' pop-oriented music encompasses subtle jazz phrasings and catchy melodies that display mature songwriting and tight musicianship in this promising young artist. Capps' new album was produced by guitarist and songwriter Anthony Farina (City Escape Me Productions), recorded at Vinegar Hill Sound in Brooklyn, NY by Reed Black (Saves the Day), and mixed at Electric Lady Studios, NY by the accomplished Michael Brauer whose credits include the likes of The Rolling Stones and Coldplay. Music has been central in Hillary's life from a very young age. She started singing at just three years old, performed in middle school groups, and wrote songs throughout high school. Hillary began performing professionally as a jazz vocalist at the age of 16 with her father's jazz group. By the age of 21, Hillary released two full-length jazz albums: A Perfect Dozen (2008) and Playlist (2010) in which she sang jazz and jazz/pop standards. Hillary released her first work of original songs with her most recent EP Maybe in the Morning (released July 2012).
