notes

Hungry Lucy began by chance in 1998 when War-N Harrison (Fishtank No.9) was asked to contribute to a Depeche Mode Tribute. War-N asked vocalist/lyricist Christa Belle to record vocals for the song Blue Dress. The couple found they worked so well as a team that they began writing together and Hungry Lucy was born. The first fruit of this labor was "Bound in Blood" [now considered a Hungry Lucy classic].

After writing and recording a handful of songs, War-N & Christa decided to put them up on MP3.com and the emails began to flood in from around the world! Pleasantly surprised by all the positive feedback, Hungry Lucy embarked on a full-length CD.

Autumn, 2000 saw the release of Hungry Lucy's debut CD, "Apparitions" that received amazing response worldwide. People really responded to the combination of pop song structures, trip hop grooves and Christa's enchanting vocals and other-worldly lyrics. Hungry Lucy continued exposing themselves very tastefully with a number of compilation and tribute CD appearances. This only fed the fire and Apparitions continued to sell better than ever. Still, the fans wanted more, and more they got. HL delivered with the debut live performance in San Francisco, a licensing deal with Belgian label Alfa Matrix and subsequent European release of Apparitions:Revisited in Fall of 2001.
In Spring and early Summer of 2002 Hungry Lucy hit the stage in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Cleveland and even out in the Indiana woods! These live performances gave the public a real audio-visual treat with Hungry Lucy's music and accompanying video.

Hungry Lucy spent the last part of 2002 recording their next full length album [a double CD] entitled "Glo". Glo captures all the elements that Hungry Lucy are known for while continuing to explore other genres such as jazz, blues and europop. The album includes a second disc of remixes and reinterpretations of songs from Glo by 10 artists including Claire Voyant, Chandeen, bloodWIRE, Trigger10d, ThouShaltNot and many more. Once again, Alfa Matrix is releasing a European version with different artwork and remixes.

  • a disk for your collection!
    author: numeroustumors

    Hard to find a bad song on this disk. As close as you can get to an orgasm without actually..., well, you know. Christa Belle has a voice that will take you away, innocently sensual, dripping with honey, yet dark and commanding.

  • HL is the reason why I found cdbaby in the first place
    author: Lina

    I looked EVERYWHERE for a site that sold 'Appparitions' and accepted paypal. I think the tedious and desperate search was well worth it. Although I was originally introduced to this group via 'Glo' I'd heard 'Bound in Blood' somewhere before and I HAD to find out what album it was on. I'm addicted to the way the sweet vocals harmonize perfectly with dark, mystifying beats. Although I worked backwards, I am glad my HL collection is complete. I especially love Blue Dress, Bed of Flames, and both versions of Bound in Blood.

  • enchantement
    author: leuthis

    Avant tout une voix envoûtante qui surfe sur des mélodies électroniques pour terminer en apothéose par "goodbye" a cappella.

    SENSATIONAL!!

  • Soul screaming yummyness!
    author: Debbie

    Your addicted to the music the moment you press Play. If your a fan of Enya, Sinead O'Connor, Dido... I think this music of for you. The female vocals are so soothing and melodic, yet ghostly and rather spiritual. The music itself also has a spooky tone to it in some of the songs, like Alfred, Bound In Blood and Bed of Flames. Your head bops to the beat and you just drift into a dream! Its a good, emotional album and you dont need to be a total goth to listen to it! Its really yummy, amazing lyrics, vocals and funky music :D Worth every penny!!!

  • lovely and thought-inspiring
    author: the dizzyweasel

    While considerably more raw than hungry lucy's later effort 'glo', this is powerful and endearing album. Sweet, often girlish vocals, thought-inspiring lyrics and a trip-hop accompaniment that will move you. The cd is worth the price for 'Bed of Flames' alone.
