Lucie Licht

In the artist's words:

Lucie Licht is a singer-songwriter you won't forget in a hurry. With glittering synth-pop sounds, profound lyrics and authenticity, she has carved out a place for herself. Born in Freudenberg in Siegerland and a Cologne resident by choice since 2012, Lucie Licht stands for music that not only catches the ear, but also gets under the skin. Her real name is Lucie Klichta, but she is known to her fans under the stage name Lucie Licht: bright, radiant and unmistakable.

Lucie Licht: From Freudenberg to Cologne and onto the stage

Lucie Licht's path into the world of music initially took her from the idyllic village of Siegerland to the music metropolis of Cologne. In 2012, she took the plunge and settled there, where she is still at home today. The decision was a logical one: Lucie Licht wanted to make music, seriously and in her own way. Parallel to her artistic work, she began studying music at the renowned Cologne University of Music in 2021, proving that she not only feels her craft, but also understands it. This combination of academic training and unfiltered creativity is what makes her sound so special: thoughtful yet raw, structured yet emotional.

Lucie Licht's debut album Doppelt & Dreifach

Lucie Licht released her debut album Doppelt & Dreifach in 2018, making a clear statement right from the start. Honest, soulful lyrics, straight to the point and paired with banging pop sounds: that was the first big fingerprint she left on the German music scene. The album showed an artist who doesn't do things by halves and doesn't hide behind slick mainstream music. Doppelt & Dreifach was a promise and Lucie Licht kept that promise with everything that followed.

Lucie Licht's EP Facets: Growth that can hurt

In 2022, Lucie Licht returned with new music. The EP Facetten, supported by the Initiative Musik, is a work about change, growth and femininity. In it, Lucie Licht tells of the desire to break out of old patterns, to stop her own thought carousel and to redefine herself. The title says it all: Lucie Licht does not want to be reduced to a single facet. She is a pop artist, thinker and storyteller. The pre-released single Karma gave a first taste of the new world of sound she had created.

Lucie Licht's sound: synth-pop, 80s charm and glittering depth

Her sound is a mix of synth-pop, rushing melodies and an unmistakable 80s influence. Lucie Licht reinvents herself a little with every release, without losing her artistic signature. Her sources of inspiration are diverse: sometimes they are autobiographical experiences, sometimes spun everyday moments, sometimes impressions from literature. Role models such as MINE and Hayley Williams have shaped her view of music and songwriting and you can hear it in the directness of her lyrics and the energy of her melodies.
