Fanny Lumsden Releases New Single “Look At Me Now!
Hot on the heels of a hugely successful eight weeks touring Europe this summer, Australian dynamo Fanny Lumsden has released a brand-new single “Look At Me Now”, reflecting on her musical journey so far.
Recorded whilst on the road in Europe, featuring her live band The Prawn Stars, Fanny said of the new single: “This is a love letter to my younger self. The amount of “no’s” I experienced in this industry is wild, and every single one I am grateful for, because they made me the person and artist I am today. Not the wins, but all the losses, the struggles and the hard moments.
“I think it’s also a reminder that ‘success’ can be an illusion, and really you can find success in every step along the way.
“It’s a cliche but I’m feeling reflective and grateful that I can still be driving the van, self-managed, doing my own make up in the rear-view mirror and yet doing the biggest shows of my career all at the same time.
“I wanted this song to feel real and hopeful and authentic to my live band who do all the miles with me and load the van and see the lows as well as the highs.
“Recording it was a crazy process of fitting in recording sessions whilst on the road. So, we are very grateful to Matt Fell for wielding his magic and helping us make it happen.”
On August 23, Fanny rounded off eight weeks in Europe by opening the main stage at the prestigious The Long Road Festival in Leicestershire following a run that had taken in a triumphant 23 date headline tour, a sold-out Country Halls tour in Scotland, 7 festivals and a support slot with fellow Australian singer-songwriter Paul Kelly.
Maintaining her reputation as “the hardest working woman in showbiz”, Fanny stepped off the stage that Saturday straight on to a plane back home to open for Kelly on his antipodean Arena Tour with Lucinda Williams.
