Arts Nest - Lisa and Randy Light

Lucky Penny is Lisa Light aka El Elle’s second full-length album.

This is also a diary of Lisa’s journey of uprooting from Oakland, CA in 2020 to the east coast to care for her mother for the last years of her life battling cancer. Along the way, she invited her father, Randy to join in the songwriting, and eventual recording of this highly emotional material. Quite a departure from her previous raucous and aggressively playful music in The Lovemakers and in her solo work, this album is entirely organic with simple, classic instrumentation and deeply thoughtful and subtle grace.
