The songs on "Lucky Penny" are the result of meticulous detail work and combine elements of different styles. "Return to Sender" is designed as a bossa Nova track, while "You got me" contains jazzy influences. Lujan himself describes her style of music as a very own sound melee, which is shaped by her passion for jazz, inspired by icons such as Billie Holiday and Etta James, but leads to the spheres of indie, country and folk music. She explains that her singing better suits these genres, which is reflected in a special musical diversity that exceeds superficial categorizations.

The artist, who recently received "Willamette Weekly" as one of the best new bands in Portland, emphasizes the personal note of her songs. In each of her works, personal experiences merge with musical exploration, which is expressed, for example, in the single "Goodbyes". In this piece, Lujan reflects on loss and the transience of relationships. She made this honest and introspective approach not only in the USA, but also in Europe. As reported, she plans to present her new album with appearances in cities such as Vienna, Steyr and Feldkirch.

With "Lucky Penny", Kendall Lujan will be ready to continue her musical journey and to show her impressive development as an artist. Her appearances will show how deeply her love for music is rooted and how she manages to transport emotions through diverse sound landscapes. This new chapter of your career promises to become as exciting as the previous stations that she has experienced and in which you immerse yourself with an exciting mix of energy and sensitivity.
