ABOUT
When Lianne La Havas performed at North Sea Jazz for the first time three years ago, she was still a diamond in the rough; her first album had yet to appear. Since that time a great many things have happened in the career of the young British singer-songwriter. With her debut Is Your Love Big Enough? (2012) La Havas was immediately nominated for a Mercury Prize. She also sang on the latest album of Prince, who is a fan, and can boast sold-out venues all over the world. Born in London to a Greek father and Jamaican mother her voice is sweet but can really tear you apart with a heart-rending sound. Her songs are playful, interesting and intelligent and in live performances she has real stage presence. If you wish to truly experience the power and fragility of La Havas’s voice, you should listen to the duet Warm Foothills that she recorded with Alt-J front man Joe Newman. Sung like an angel and guaranteed to move you.

Lianne Charlotte Barnes (born 23 August 1989), known professionally as Lianne La Havas is a British singer-songwriter. Her career began after being introduced to various musicians, including singer Paloma Faith, for whom she sang backing vocals. In 2010, La Havas signed to Warner Bros. Records, spending two years developing her songwriting, before releasing any music. La Havas' debut studio album, Is Your Love Big Enough? (2012), was released to positive reviews from critics and earned her a nomination for the BBC's Sound of 2012 poll and awards for the iTunes Album of The Year 2012. She has released two other studio albums since, Blood in 2015 and Lianne La Havas in 2020. She was nominated once for a Grammy award in 2016 and twice for the Brit Awards, in 2017 and 2021.
