LU's new official website...

Hi y'all,

Yes, it's taken an incredibly long time (too long, some would rightly say) to spruce up the website. But hooray, RED DOT Music & Management have come to my aid and nobly saved a damsel in distress - fixing up the site and making it, well, lovely and.... new!!

It's not that I've been sat on my laurels, twiddling my thumbs watching the world go by over the last, goodness knows how long. I've actually been rather busy, but updating the site was never one of my strong points! So apologies on that detail... or lack of!

Such lovely goodies to look forward to - signed copies of RED, new tour dates and progress reports on new recordings to the long awaited follow up to RED. All info can be found on the official Lu Cozma website.

Steve and I will be hitting the road in the near future with our music. We're looking forward to seeing you at a gig near you soon. In the meantime, if you need any info on gigs, CD's, news or just want to say hello, please drop us a line at - info@reddotmanagement.co.uk / www.lucozma.com

Sophisticated Lemons without a bitter twist...


Sophisticated Lemons, Clubul Taranului, 10th April, 2010

Indie Popsicles? Nope. They’re ‘Sophisticated Lemons’ with a sharp appeal that’ll tickle the taste buds...

They’ve done their homework and the studies have come good. They’ve got the look, they’ve got the sound and they’ve got the charisma... Top marks all around.

I anticipate in the very, very near future, a flock of screaming starry eyed girls in tow, with a throng of adoring fans queuing a mile down the road just to get through the doors of venues where they’ll be playing. To get hands on the hottest tickets in town will be every persons mission... well those who have good ears for good new sounds!!!

Yes, the fresh faced youthfulness of the ‘Sophisticated Lemons’ have made an impression and one hopes that it will be an indelible one on Romania’s new and thriving music scene - a waking call to the public, an alternative that is not a bitter one to swallow but something that‘s current, energetic, and that speaks volumes to the young generation....

Key trax – Bloody Mary, Drugs and Hugs

Sounds like – Live they sound like a mash up of vocal front man Tom Smith from the Editors and have an indie guitar based zest of The Kooks (but without the Brighton come pseudo northern English accent)!

World Vision & LU...

Full details can be found on http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lu-Cozma/267440988509

LU's album RED is now available through http://www.charitygift.ro/ and costs 25RON. All proceeds will be going to World Vision Romania to help children from the 'Colinde' group in Ialomita make their first CD of Romanian folk songs.

Please support this worthy cause and buy a CD. Charity comes naturally and only takes a few minutes to go online and make an order...

A good year for female artists...

A strong year for female artists / Brit Award nominees 2010 / Awards @ Earls Court, 16/2/10

BAT FOR LASHES – Nominated, Best British Female solo artist. Alternative.
Likened to a new Kate Bush, indeed she will probably be with us for many years to come making ground making music while other female artists fall away. Our dear Kate was always underestimated for so many years, Natasha Khan could suffer the same fate, but hopefully the UK listening public can see true quality and give praise when it’s due.

FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE – Nominated, Best female solo artist. Pop/Alternative/Indie
Flame haired siren, whose mission is to storm America - she’ll probably do it. ‘Kiss With A Fist’ (’08) brought her to the UK music press attention. A demure female artist with attitude? Too freakin’ right!

LILY ALLEN – Nominated, Best female solo artist. Pop/Other
LDN lifted her off into orbit. Sharp wit and a refreshing ‘say it as it is’ attitude our Lily’s been proof that you can kick back in rebellion and still be commercially viable.

LA ROUX - Nominated Brit’ Break Through Act. Alt/electronic
Hair slickin’, quiff flickin’ songstress who’s other music half is never seen on stage... La Roux aka Elly Jackson’s androgynous looks and 80’s stylistic music have made her stand out from the crowd as well as her hair ...
