Aly Spaltro, better known by her stage name Lady Lamb (formerly called Lady Lamb the Beekeeper) is an American songwriter, musician, composer, and producer.[2] Spaltro first began writing music in 2007 while working at Bart & Greg's DVD Explosion, the local video rental store in her hometown of Brunswick, Maine. Spaltro worked the closing shift, and would experiment with and record music all night into the morning.[3] The first Lady Lamb recordings were home recordings distributed in handmade packages to the local Bullmoose[4] Record Store in Brunswick.

In 2010, Spaltro moved to Brooklyn, New York. In 2012, Spaltro met producer Nadim Issa and recorded her debut studio record, Ripely Pine at Let Em In Music in Gowanus, Brooklyn. It was released February 19, 2013 on Brooklyn's Ba Da Bing Records.

In 2014, Spaltro recorded and co-produced her sophomore studio album, After, with Nadim Issa at Let Em In Music. Late that same year, Spaltro signed with Mom + Pop Music and released the album After on March 3, 2015.[2] In December 2016 she released the seven track self-produced EP "Tender Warriors Club" recorded at Kristian Matsson's home studio in Sweden.[5]

In 2019, Spaltro released Even in the Tremor, her third studio album, co-produced with New York-based producer Erin Tonkon. It was released on Ba Da Bing Records.

In 2023 Spaltro released her self-produced box-set "In The Mammoth Nothing of The Night" on Ba Da Bing Records, commemorating ten years of her first studio record, "Ripely Pine."
