Lucy Landymore is an award winning multi-percussionist, drummer and composer. As the drummer with the World of Hans Zimmer, she frequently performs to sold out arenas across Europe. She is also the guest lead percussionist and drummer with world-renowned duo Igudesman & Joo and has toured with the world famous tenor, Andrea Bocelli. In addition, Lucy has been featured on Sky TV with Michael Parkinson, Deutsche Welle, BBC 2, BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge, BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 3 among many others. Many international publications have featured Lucy’s work, including the German Drums & Percussion magazine and the French Batterie magazine, where Lucy was listed as one of the Top 10 New Drummers of 2019.
Recognised as one of today’s most talented and versatile drummer/percussionists, Lucy's fascination with drums was obvious from the age of 2, when she began watching performances by her father's big band, “78RPM". When she was 17, Lucy won the percussion category of the 2010 BBC Young Musician of the Year. She then went on to study classical percussion at the Royal College of Music with Dave Hockings and Ralph Salmins.
2018 saw the premiere of Landymore's ensemble music, held in concert at the Tonhalle Maag, Zurich. In this extraordinary project titled Football in Concert, she fused together her music with sport to enhance the experience of the FIFA World Cup football match, as well as adding visual excitement to the music itself. The project was commissioned by More than Classic. Lucy has also toured her composition Roo for solo vibraphone, violin and orchestra in multiple venues across Europe with Lucy as vibraphone soloist.
In 2019, Lucy was commissioned to write Fantaisie Festive for orchestra and 13 soloists for the 10 Year Gala of the Puplinge Classique Festival in Geneva, Switzerland.
Lucy proudly endorses Meinl Percussion, Meinl Cymbals, Ludwig Musser and Protection Racket.
