Ark: Lucy Wainwright Roche.

More
Ark 316 S. Main, Ann Arbor

The daughter of Loudon Wainwright III and Suzzy Roche, Lucy is a pop-folk singer-songwriter with a crystalline voice who’s been compared to Joni Mitchell and Nanci Griffith. “She churns out lyrical impossibilities time and again, each conveying so much with so little,” writes Folk Alley in a review of her 2018 album Little Beast. “The depth and density of songwriting on display here is truly something to behold.” $29.
