we were the scene is out now on all major platforms including Spotify, Apple, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Tidal and Deezer on the 1st of March.

Listen Here

we were the scene is 17-year-old Lucy Gray's fifth release, following up her successful single not fair which currently has over 16,000 streams on Spotify. The we were the scene single is nostalgic, yearning and reflects on childhood. It's about the feeling of wishing you could be a kid again, and in the words of one of the song's inspiring sources, 'wanting back girlhood'.

This song was funded by NZ on Air, and Lucy recorded this song in a home studio with a modern, eclectic duo, and AMA-nominated and APRA award-winning producers Andy and Vic Knopp. Plenty of artsy acoustic layers, mixed with vulnerable and distinctive vocal harmonies; this song emulates Fearless era Taylor Swift, Noah Kahan, and Gracie Abrams.

One of the things that makes this song interesting is the character of Lucy’s voice. Andy and Vic’s recording manages to showcase the unique nature of her tone & phrasing, capturing an impressive emotional range & all while sounding effortlessly produced.
