Songs from My Heart | Lucy Sugerman | TEDxCanberra

At just 15 years of age, Lucy Sugerman is an accomplished and award-winning singer songwriter. Demonstrating a wisdom far beyond her years in both her writing and her stage presence, Lucy shines as she performs three original songs which come straight from her heart.

Lucy Sug­er­man recently crowned an Aus­tralian National Busk­ing Cham­pion, is a four­teen-year-old per­former and song­writer from Aus­tralia. Play­ing all kinds of events and ven­ues from pubs to wed­dings to cor­por­ate events, Lucy has been per­form­ing around Can­berra since she was just nine years old. In 2011, she raised $1500 in under two hours busk­ing for the Red Cross Queensland Floods Dis­aster Relief and Recov­ery work. In 2013, Lucy pro­duced her first album with seven ori­gin­als mixed and mastered at the Can­berra Art­Sound FM Stu­dios. 2015 was the year Lucy skyrock­eted into the Can­berra music scene. In that year, she won ‘Best Per­form­ance of an Ori­ginal Song’ in the Youth Tra­di­tions Awards at Illawarra National Folk Fest­ival, became the sec­ond­ary age cat­egory (13−17) Aus­tralian National Busk­ing Cham­pion, won ‘Best Solo Artist’.
