Oooo...Who created Lucil?
Montreal resident Krista L. L. Muir has been composing, recording and touring her original music locally and internationally for over 12 years.
As "Lederhosen Lucil" Krista released a number of independent singles and two full-length albums on her hypo records bedroom label. Her second album Tales From The Pantry ranked high on Canadian indie charts and became one of EarshotÕs Top 50 albums of 2003. Immediately following its release, ÒLucilÓ toured North America and Europe with friend and co-conspirator DJ Kid Koala. After the release of her Apricota single in 2004, she spent much of 2005 as ÒLucilÓ on tour throughout Australia, New Zealand, Texas, and Europe.
In March 2006 Krista became a published author with the release of a full-colour art book exploring the eight eye candy filled years of Lederhosen Lucil entitled The Joy of Hosen: Lederhosen Lucil Up Close und Pictorial published by Mudscout Media.
While mastering the art of baritone ukulele strumming, Krista composed a whole new body of creative work that she recorded in Toronto with Fembots and Montreal with Shane Watt. Another independent release, ÒLeave AlightÓ is a playfully winsome family of pretty songs underpinned by melancholy.
Krista is currently learning the Greek language and music for a future recording project, getting excited about her next full-length album that will be recorded in 2008 with Shane Watt, and working on television pitches for a Lederhosen Lucil cartoon and a secret cooking showÉ
