Nicole Wray and Terri Walker, who perform as Lady, sing in the Soundcheck studio.

Lady: Ready And Waiting For Success

Soundcheck | Apr 9, 2013

Singers Nicole Wray and Terri Walker started their musical careers literally thousands of miles apart – one, in Virginia, the other, in London. Wray began as an up-and-coming R&B protégé to rapper Missy Elliott; Walker studied opera and received a Mercury Prize nomination for her debut solo album.

However, after their two separate careers stalled, the two eventually met in New York and teamed up to form Lady – a dually-led band with a classic soul sound that recently released a debut self-titled album. The two join us for a stripped down set -- and an impromptu dance party. 

Set List: 

  • Money
  • Hold On
