LVDY [pronounced LADY] is the Colorado-based duo of Kathleen Hooper and Aubrey Mable, creating music that moves, uplifts, and connects. With roots in singer-songwriter, indie-folk and a sound shaped by soaring harmonies and organic instrumentation, LVDY crafts songs that feel like home. In unison it is almost unrecognizable who’s who, and in harmony, an effortless blend that welcomes the exhale. Their uplifting sound and intimate storytelling weave love anthems in and out of their messages, with simple yet important reminders that we’re not alone.

Their ethereal harmonies, musical warmth, and meaningful lyrics find inspiration in the beauty of the outdoors and the threads that weave us together as humans. Though their roots lie in the singer-songwriter realm, their music is intentionally genre-fluid, allowing them to adapt their sound to a wide range of audiences, settings, and collaborations.

Formed in 2018, LVDY has played hundreds of shows across the U.S. & Europe—self-funded, self-built, and community-powered. What started as sidewalk busking has evolved into a loyal grassroots community—the LVDYMOB—and an intimate, high-connection live experience. They have shared stages with the likes of Rising Appalachia, Dirtwire, KT Tunstall, Emily King, Daniel Rodriguez, JOSEPH, Joy Oladokun, Ayla Nereo, LÉON, Emily Scott Robinson, and Brendan James.

"Mable’s warm rasp complements Hooper’s bright and clear vocals. With an acoustic guitar, the occasional tambourine, and their harmonies, LVDY creates honest music filled with positive energy that’s perfect for those sunny Colorado afternoons."

Aubrey and Kathleen’s journey began in 2012 when they met while studying abroad in Dunedin, New Zealand. Quickly becoming the best of friends, they bonded over shared dreams of traveling the world and sharing their music. Their jam sessions, often set in chilly New Zealand flats, eventually led to the formation of LVDY. After returning to the U.S., they continued playing on front porches and in the homes of friends and family, turning late-night kitchen jams into the spark of their original music.

LVDY’s debut EP, Electricity, was produced by Dreamers Delight and released in February 2019. That year, the duo was named Best Folk Band/Artist by Denver’s 303 Magazine, marking the beginning of their full-time music career. LVDY toured nearly 100 shows and festivals across the country, performing at renowned venues like Denver’s Lost Lake, Larimer Lounge, and The Marquis Theater, as well as New York’s Rockwood Music Hall, L.A.’s Hotel Café, and Chicago’s House of Blues.

Their debut album, Gold, came to life in 2020 through a successful Kickstarter campaign, followed by The Woods in 2022. In February 2024, they released Feathers, a dynamic EP produced by award-winning artist Dan Rodriguez, marking a new chapter in their evolution. On the heels of a momentous 2025, 2026 holds the release of their most mature sound yet, weaving medicinal mantras and indie-folk pop songs into your everyday life.

Beyond the stage, Aubrey & Kathleen adore creating experiences outside that bridge the gap between nature and music. From intimate backcountry yoga retreats tucked deep in the mountains to soul-nourishing live music river trips, these gatherings are designed to slow people down and reconnect them to themselves, to each other, and to the natural world. Whether floating down a winding river or grounding into stillness in the wilderness, their intention is to create spaces where music isn’t just heard—it’s felt, shared, and lived.

Through it all, LVDY remains driven by the belief that music is medicine and community is everything.
