    A native of South London, with Greek and Jamaican parents, La Havas began teaching herself to play piano, write songs, and sing at the age of seven. Her family’s diverse taste was very influential, when she was a child, her grandparents babysat her often: “They’re from Jamaica, so when I was growing up I listened to a lot of religious reggae-almost hymns, but in a reggae style-on cassettes. But at the same time my mother was listening to a lot of '80s and '90s Michael Jackson, and Mary J Blige, who I loved from a very early age. Plus India Arie, Jill Scott and The Fugees”.
    Lianne’s biggest hits include “Green and Gold”, “Unstoppable”, “Gone”, as well as an incredible cover of Dionne Warwick's “I Say a Little Prayer”, and a show stopping Tiny Desk performance for NPR Music. Her catalogue also includes the albums “Blood” and “Is Your Love Big Enough”.

    Six years old
    Staring at my nose in the mirror
    Trying to dip my toes in the mirror
    Thinking Whos that girl?
    And Does the mirror world go on forever?
    Calmly you roll
    Sharpening the knives in the attic
    Trying to watch cartoons through the static
    Thinking where am I gonna be
    If Im ever twenty-three? Oh
    Im looking at a life unfold
    Dreaming of the green and gold
    Just like the ancient stone
    Every sunrise I know
    Those eyes you gave to me
    That let me see
    Where I come from
    Found an old friend
    Meeting my guitar in the city
    Feeling like a star in the city
    And suddenly it seems that
    Im where Im supposed to be oh
    And now Im fully grown
    And Im seeing everything clearer
    Just sweep away the dust from the mirror
    Were walking hand in hand
    on the warm white sands
    Im looking at a life unfold
    Dreaming of the green and gold
    Just like the ancient stone
    Every sunrise I know
    Those eyes you gave to me
    That let me see
    Where I come from
    Ancient stone
    Oh green and gold
    Ancient stone
    Oh green and gold
    Ancient stone
    Oh green and gold
    Ancient stone
    Green and gold
    Im looking at a life unfold
    Dreaming of the green and gold
    Just like the ancient stone
    Every sunrise I know
    Those eyes you gave to me
    That let me see
    Where I come from
    Im looking at a life unfold
    Dreaming of the green and gold
    Just like the ancient stone
    Every sunrise I know
    Those eyes you gave to me
    That let me see
    Where I come from

    your voice is so pure and smoky. You sincerely have such a unique I have never heard anything like it. I'm at a performing arts high school Boston Arts Academy and a music major their with a concentration in jazz vocals and you are definitely someone that aspires me to keep up with my music and someone who I channel when I need ideas. Your voice has so much soul and emotion behind it I have never heard anyone do that. You and Erykah Badu are my biggest role models. Please keep singing girly it's amazing to hear. Sometimes my job plays some of your songs and I die with happiness. Never stop singing everyone at my school loves you.
