Music & bio
That little girl with the big voice! When I
first heard those words, I knew I wanted to keep singing.
That was more than 12 years ago and now I’m so excited to
have just finished recording my first country music album.
My name is Lacey D and I’m the youngest of four kids. I was
raised in the Pacific Northwest and will be relocating to
Nashville in 2008 to pursue my career as a country music
singer.
Like most singers, I started singing in
school and church choirs. Throughout junior and senior high
school I studied voice and trained at a performing arts
school in Kirkland Washington where I sang in musical
theater, cabaret shows and participated in master classes.
During that time, I also sang at numerous private parties,
charity auctions and sporting events.
When I was 14 and needed to record
myself singing the “Star Spangled Banner”, a friend
introduced me to a songwriter/producer in Seattle who had a
recording studio. That meeting led to a 10-year friendship
and hundreds of hours in studio. It was through that
relationship that a producer in Nashville heard me sing. In
early 2007 he expressed an interest in producing an album
with me. The rest is history! I’ve just completed my debut
album Everyday Girl. I have worked with some
amazing musicians, producers and engineers and I can’t wait
to share the music with others!
I’m not sure yet where this path will
lead, but with the love and support of my family and
friends, my dreams are endless and I am ready for the ride.

Girl’s Debut Project
Seattle, WA
- Presenting sweet, soulful vocals and a return to
traditional country music, Seattle’s Lacey D debuts her new
CD “Everyday Girl” December 4th, 2007 to be released by West
Country Records.
The talented singer/songwriter recorded the set featuring
music industry veterans Michael Behymer (Roy Clark, Wayne
Newton, Frankie Lane); Fred Newell (Jerry Reed, Marty
Stuart, Porter Wagoner); and David Northrup (Travis Tritt),
among others at Bayou Studios in Nashville with producer
Scott Turner (Slim Whitman, Jimmy Bryant) at the helm.
“Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in the
studio with countless seasoned entertainers,” states Turner.
“But what a joy it was to work to produce Lacey. Even the A
Team studio musicians remarked about how rewarding it was to
play for an artist who was so professional in her
approach.”
Lacey D, that little girl with the big voice, began her
enthusiasm for country music over 12 years ago. Like most
singers, she began vocalizing in school and church choirs.
Throughout junior and senior high school, Lacey studied
voice and trained at a performing arts school where she sang
in musical theater, cabaret shows and participated in master
classes. At 14, Lacey was introduced to a local songwriter
and music publisher/producer in Seattle who had a recording
studio. That meeting led to a 10 year friendship and
hundreds of hours in the recording studio. It was through
that relationship that Lacey discovered Nashville producer
Scott Turner who helped select songs for “Everyday Girl” and
eventually brought Lacey to Nashville to produce her debut
CD.
Wednesday, December 5th marks the first celebration honoring
Lacey’s CD release. The event, sponsored by West Country
Records, is scheduled from 5:30-8:30PM at Little Red Hen,
7115 Woodland Ave., NE, Seattle, WA 98115. Phone
206/522-1168. The event is free to the general public and
Lacey will perform several tunes from her album for
