Lucy Spotts, is a 21 year old singer/songwriter/surfer/influencer who resides in New Smyrna Beach.
She performs full time with her guitar and harmonica and has been recording and releasing music, 41 original songs and 1 cover song so far, since she was 17 (available on all online platforms).
Lucy started singing (despite being very bashful) when she was 8 years old with her siblings as part of the “Amerikids” Choir in Orlando for huge conventions. She was also a member of the Professional Caroling Company as a “Caroling Kid” with her mom who sang soprano each Christmas season throughout her childhood.
After her inspirational surfing progression video went viral on Instagram and Tiktok (much to Lucy’s surprise!), Surfgirl Magazine and Girls Who Surf reached out to Lucy and featured her story in their popular publications. A story of hope about her battle with symptoms of anxiety and depression as a young teenager. She recollects how her mom thought moving to the beach, with the salty air, ocean water, and regular sunshine might revive her spirit. She had already been playing the guitar, writing music and singing privately at that time as a sort of therapy, but after moving to NSB at the age of 15, she discovered surfing to be another therapeutic friend. Altogether, music, surfing, beach life, friends & family, journaling, prayer, and God, have become her “medication”.
Lucy is grateful for the local seasoned surfers who mentored her as she learned to ride waves. (and avoid sharks!)
This transformation has inspired a multi-faceted career with countless new original songs, a full time singing schedule and multiple wholesome videos on social media that have touched people worldwide and reached over 14 million people. All about surfing, faith, music, silly adventures, serious topics, comedic creations, surfer hair care and creative commercials.
Lucy moves energy and inspires when she performs, with her clear, fresh, and sweet vocal style and relaxed stage presence; whether she’s singing one of her originals, a love song, Tennessee Whiskey, Stuck On You, Alison Krauss, John Denver, Dolly Parton, Fleetwood Mac, or a Taylor Swift favorite.
Her original songs about fishing, nature, beach life, love, hate, cowboys, surfing, Publix (!), heartbreak, relationships, faith and God, resonate with the human experience for folks of all ages and walks of life. They are like stepping into her personal journal and give the listener a view of her internal depths and youthful heart.
