Product Description:
"Hooked!" showcases Woodward's engaging, expressive vocals and witty, insightful songwriting on such memorable originals as "He Got Away," "Purple Heart," and "Slow Recovery." Another highlight is "Another Woman," especially written for Lucy by admirer Nellie McKay, who lends her harmony vocals to the track. Woodward's gifts as an interpreter of outside material are showcased on her readings of such vintage tunes as the obscure Peggy Lee number "Sans Souci," Hoagy Carmichael's 1930s pop standard "Stardust" and "I Wan'na Be Like You (The Monkey Song)," originally sung by Louis Prima in Disney's The Jungle Book.
Hooked! was produced largely by veteran studio legend Tony Visconti (David Bowie, T. Rex, Paul McCartney, Morrissey), with additional tracks produced by Justin Stanley (Nikka Costa, Eric Clapton) and longtime Woodward collaborators Tim K.and Itaal Shur.
In addition to her own albums, Woodward has also contributed songs to the soundtracks of several films, including Disney's Ice Princess and the recent Sandra Bullock hit The Blind Side. She's also devoted considerable energy to several charitable projects, making multiple trips to Africa on behalf of relief organizations, and singing for Bishop Desmond Tutu at a benefit for his foundation in Dallas.
