Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys - A Human Home LP
‘A Human Home’ was written during lockdown in Lucy’s room in Berlin. It is a low-fi, intimate, and expressive collection of musical sketches that explore what it means to find and feel at home. Featuring a number of accidental and deliberate remote collaborations, it documents a specific, personal, and universally shared moment in time.

Less than a year after the release of ‘Heaving’, Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys have shared a new album. ‘A Human Home’ was written and recorded during lockdown in Lucy’s room in Berlin. This low-fi, intimate, and expressive collection of musical sketches explores what it means to find and feel at home. Featuring a number of accidental and deliberate remote collaborations, it documents a specific, personal, and universally shared moment in time.
Initially, the project aimed to gather poems, sketches, and different artistic expressions from friends and family to explore their experiences of isolation and use these as starting points for songs. However, what felt more interesting and true were the unscripted conversations Lucy was having at the time. She collected voice notes and texts from friends and allowed them to inform her writing. The making of the album was a deliberate attempt to embrace the influence of others on her creative and personal process, acknowledging how much of home lies not only in place but in the people we love.
The album artwork was created by Julia Schimautz at DTAN studio, with photography by Francis Broek and hair, make-up, and styling by Lenny-Dee Nielson.
