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”.

[@katherinereel8145]

I had the honor of doing her makeup a couple times during my early days in NY. One of the most soulful, warm, talented, classy, elegant, amazing artists who don’t get enough credit. She absolutely deserves some Grammies. Love Lianne!

[@KonichiWawa]

She seems like someone who would make an amazing friend.

[@derekandclive1]

So I was sitting at the Brisbane airport playing this song on youtube on my phone, and Lianne came over and said 'that's me singing that song ' She stopped and chatted, signed her album for me I had just bought that morning, and was happy to have photo's. Not only immensely talented, gorgeous, but clearly grounded and a beautiful person. Deserves all the success in the world!!

[@yellowmesh7821]

Stfu!!!!! Is it true?! I can't believe it 😨

[@edwardchen9619]

wayyyyy too good to be true bro

[@danielsilva9502]

People will really say anything for attention.

[@blake-qh9xp]

awesome

[@mariadasg6645]

Lucky guy

[@graceleeee]

HER OUTFIT. HER HAIR. THE VIDEOGRAPHY.

[@guiafb99]

HER VOICE

[@entp3905]

+gracelee HER TALENT. HER VOICE. HER GRACE.

[@Cbravop93]

JUST. HER.

[@Jack-oc2xq]

why isn't she up there with artists like Beyonce, Adele, etc. She has such a beautiful voice and she's absolutely flawless.

[@FaithLikeNoOther]

That's what makes her that much better... she's a hidden gem!

[@petergordon4983]

Jack Cleary couldn't agree more

[@Mjollnir1234]

Perhaps she's not interested in empty fame.

[@222browneyes]

John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt It's pretty difficult to make music, publish it, perform live and also mitigate your fame to the perfect level - it's basically down to luck

[@OrangeAni]

Jack Cleary Just not Beyoncé - overrated with only few decent songs

[@Jaylasplenty]

This song stays in your brain after just one listen.

[@CaapriceTube1]

Why this doesnt have at least 3 million views is beyond me. People don't know good music these days!!

[@SheWhoComesAtNight]

Not 3 million views, but it is getting there. :)

[@pats6915]

3.6 million and counting!

[@FoeSama]

She deserves a few Grammy's, Is Your Love Big Enough? And Blood are Albums that you can listen to from Start to finish without skipping any tracks, Her Lyrics can really touch you.

[@moatazabdellatif9641]

exactly

[@facufacufa]

you don't need an award when you have that talent

[@ItsStarrBanks]

She is so beautiful she makes me appreciate my blackness!!!

[@WilliamGonzalez-pm3xh]

Wonderfully put.

[@Flixxel]

You are beautiful! ♥️

[@MooCowPoopPoop]

The message of this song is so beautiful. It's about her journey to self-love.

[@ChandanKumar-tw1hy]

MooCowPoopPoop xviedo

[@yasinkhansaheb]

Can you explain how so? I am dumb I don’t get it 😭

[@GabrielTrentinBarbosa]

​@@yasinkhansaheb I would say self-love and self-awareness, because of the part she talks about cleaning the dust from the mirror, now she can see herself. Also the part where she says that sees everything clearer after all those lines she was just discovering herself.

[@fiona3718]

This song puts me in such a good mental state - makes me so comfortable and ready to do the things I love

[@mo6816]

Lianne La Havas and Corinne Bailey Rae. I'll be waiting patiently.

[@destroytheangels]

Oh my god yes

[@meujigae2727]

oh my God, that would be phenomenal. I'll be there for sure!

[@marie-cecile9092]

Same here

[@ants9151]

Monique Damn you read my mind

[@AmiraVirgo]

Yessss😻 Sadly still waiting 😢

[@paulaclarke-hill1157]

Lianne is doing her thing. Kudos to her for stepping outside of the box of the music industry.

[@jerrybee566]

First time I heard Lianne's voice was on Being Mary Jane. Her music came on & I immediately shazamed, got the album, watched her live performances, read about her, followed her on twitter and IG. She's like none other. I just hope she gets MAJOR attention cuz music isnt all about the generic formulaic pop bullshit on the radio.There are soo many soulful awesome artists out there who MAKE REAL MUSIC.

[@FlowtnWitWalden]

+jerrie sambers yeah that's exactly how it was first time i heard Chaka singin's with Rufus, cept there was no twitter or any such b.s., but yeah, same. lol

[@Meesha-RayMusic]

Being Jamaican, I just had a hunch that Green & Gold was referring to Jamaica. So proud that you got green and gold blood girl!

[@manzanillita]

she looks so beautiful on this video omfg.

[@evrep47]

Mel Beltrán ikr makes me.wanna marry her.

[@SpaceCowboyToo]

She always looks beautiful! ;)

[@TheSeabreez]

It’s so refreshing to see a woman value her natural beauty instead of covering it up with false eyelashes, wigs and a ton of makeup, to the point where they don’t even look like themselves anymore. We need more of this

[@seeker3894]

Probalby the most beautiful woman on the world :) Gorgeous song ! Happy to have the album on vinyl !

[@solotte1005]

one day i decided to just randomly click on a playlist on spotify, her song was on the playlist and i instantly fell in love. what a beautiful coincidence

[@joyousjoyous9358]

That's exactly how I found her, only last Sunday. I've had Green & Gold and Unstoppable on repeat since then.

[@ZeranZeran]

This is a really beautiful dedication to her heritage. "Dreaming of the green and gold, just like the ancient stone, every sun rise I know, Those eyes you gave to me, that let me see, where I come from" it's about getting to travel to the countries her parents/ancestors come from and see where she comes from.

[@xbabygirltx]

I love that this song was inspired by/about Jamaica. This song perfectly embodies what I feel like whenever I go to my homeland ⭐️🇯🇲

[@miguelalvesmacedo]

I never heard of her until I went to Coldplay's concert yesterday, all I could think when she started to sing was "WHO IS SHE AND WHERE SHE WAS THIS WHOLE TIME?" I can't describe how much in love I am.

[@araurg]

same here! So much better in the real life as well!

[@vidvention]

true her acoustics sound much better live

[@charlotte.7124]

yeah same |-/

[@darthjerh12]

I've been waiting years for her to get the attention she DESERVES. phenomenal in every way.

[@miguelalvesmacedo]

Jerh ree I know how you feel, good music it's hard to be successful nowadays

[@Premilla79]

everything about Lianne La Havas is stunning - voice, looks, personality...

[@JLF18]

If she does not win a Grammy...

[@MsSuperSoulFighter]

Listen..

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

Do people still measure artists by grammy's?

[@theycallmesully2386]

+tvwatcher9617 Grammys are meaningless

[@TheSvmurai]

+They Call Me Sully maybe, but you should look at it from the artists perspective. raised knowing that that award is the epitome of progress. Theres a lot of recognition that comes with a Grammy

[@MsSuperSoulFighter]

+PJ If you're asking of the importance of a grammy, try this article. medium.com/cuepoint/you-may-not-care-about-winning-a-grammy-but-i-do-5e04999229c Maybe you'll better understand that we're talking about career implications, not only status/titles.

[@Missantillesgirl]

I can feel her beauty and her confidence through her video. It's so beautiful to watch

[@yagirllmay]

I heard this song on the beginning of Grey's Anatomy last night...immediately went on a frantic search and found this lovely, angelic, never heard before voice!!! How did I not know? New fan!!!!

[@strawberryvz]

Yas!!

[@tinooze]

like before listening, anyone?

[@MOON-rx3es]

me too !!

[@bre4me1234]

I'm gently crying because of the beauty I just witnessed.

[@MelColes-wz4cy]

Timeless, Classy, Beautiful, Soulful, Creative and Talented... I smell a Grammy needed.

[@liezer8392]

Realising why haven't I discovered her before where was I when this song has been released ??? It's freaking literally my vibe of song!! And her version of say my little pray is living in my head rent free🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 lots of love appreciation to Lianne💗💗😍

[@IdaMilec]

*This song is EVERYTHING* ❤❤❤

[@333musicllc7]

Wow! Not sure if I commented on this one already but sheesh! It has so much spice, vigor and sensuality. It’s actually very perfect! 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️

[@nomfundozondi289]

My goodness. This is so beautiful , I feel my soul dancing. So so so so beautiful

[@kemikalrxn]

It didn't surprise me to read recently that Lianne is a big fan of Radiohead and their song Weird Fishes because the arpeggios that open this song immediately made me think of Radiohead. Love it.

[@djfluidum]

I checked it and you have god damn right. but I prefere definetly Lianne`s song. Her composition is more advanced in my opinion and off course her voice and beauty beats every radio head : 0

[@xmrsmarsx]

Sham Bolic absolutely! Also, you can notice that from her brilliant cover of Weird Fishes in Glastonbury

[@peppersquad4848]

This song is basically a reckoner cover

[@kemikalrxn]

@@xmrsmarsx which she recorded for her self titled album released this year!

[@CJ_7519]

Definite neo soul vibe goin' on. Sounds very early 2000's.

[@javiermedina1251]

she was just amazing last night in Bogotá!

[@_kanasapre_]

Absolutamente de acuerdo contigo :)

[@luisfreire7121]

En México la partió también.

[@freedraco]

+Javier Medina Total me gusto mucho, me hubiera encantado verla haciendo la voz femenina en hymn for the weekend pero buehh

[@dilegox]

Si, estuvo buenísima.

[@CountingSuns]

A bonafide work of art this is, she is so incredibly talented and this song has a vibe that strums the deepest chords in my heart.

[@shabazzashanti]

Everything she produces is just amazing like how

[@GasparMadera]

This vibe.... this groove..... wow!! precious. It gets in your head and carry with you all day.

[@WILBriscoe]

YES, She's an artist and what i mean by that her quality is stellar in every form.

[@VinceVolta]

This woman here, she's so beautiful and talented!!!

[@toridanielle333]

Just saw her live in Atlanta and she was absolutely incredible. Easily a top 10 life experience for me!

[@klkandy]

Me too. She was so beautiful and sounded amazing

[@shebes]

+Tori Flot Lianne La Havas was AMAZING in ATL on the 25th of October 2015. She was better than expected, had awesome presence and seemed genuinely happy about the crowds reaction to her and her music. Beautiful experience indeed!!

[@ladiepink]

+Tori Flot they had to cancel our show :( Dallas

[@toridanielle333]

This is terribly unfortunate! I really hope you get to see her next time she comes around. She was truly amazing. I could see her 10 times and not get tired!

[@ladiepink]

Ish i hit the wrong button was trying to reply

[@lemonsaltcandy]

I usually listen only songs because I'd rather fall deep in music than the singer's appearance. But I have to admit that she's so gorgeous.

[@ortsac7466]

So Beautiful..

[@mysterbear]

Pure art. 👌🏿

[@sheilatorresdemello5321]

Her voice is beautiful and velvety ...wonderful performance!!

[@michaelgay169]

Lianne La Havas is an artist with style, grade "A" talent and creative vocal ability. The awesome track "Green & Gold" (certified platinum) has a Prince and the New Power Generation feel to it. I got to get my hands on this lyrical masterpiece. I'm gonna make it my business to add this to my musical library. Yes, oh yes!

[@surferkat24]

killer tan outfit in the beginning. love everything about it. so many amazing details and a really rad overall feeling

[@vinniedurrant]

A band called the Accidentals done a cover of this and I just couldn't get it out of my head, so I had to check this out and nice to realise the cover was faithful. Great song 🎶

[@Lina-qn5hj]

Beautiful piece of art.

[@MnH1987]

That bass

[@elsamere]

Wow. How have I not heard of this woman before??? She is awesome! I fell in love with this song and her voice ten seconds into the song and am so blown away. What a rich, sultry voice. She's gorgeous to listen to and also to see. I love discovering a new artist that truly IS talented!

[@juliabielmusic]

I love the honesty in this so much, thank you Liane. It's subtle, beautiful, different..

[@beaubreau]

Such an amazing song. I just love all the vibes this song has. I nearly teared up the first time I heard this song, the lyrics are so damn beautiful. Such a great gift you are giving us here.

[@matthewfelix1851]

I love her voice.

[@naomigommez]

[Lyrics] Six years old Staring at my nose through the mirror Trying to get my toes in the mirror Thinking 'who's that girl?' And 'does the mirror world go on forever?' Carmenia Road Sharpening the knives in the attic Trying to watch cartoons through the static Thinking where am I gonna be If I'm ever twenty three? I'm looking at a life unfold Dreaming of the green and gold Just like the ancient stone Every sun rise 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 I'm where I'm supposed to be, oh And now I'm fully grown And I'm seeing everything clearer Just sweep away the dust from the mirror We're walking hand in hand in the warm white sands I'm looking at a life unfold Dreaming of the green and gold Just like the ancient stone Every sun rise 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 Green and gold Ancient stone Green and gold I'm looking at a life unfold Dreaming of the green and gold Just like the ancient stone Every sun rise I know Those eyes you gave to me That let me see Where I come from

I studied under a motown era bass player who jokingly called this the "Ooom - Blat" beat. Love it. Right in the pocket. This track is SO FRESH! Sexy beautiful amazing black woman absolutely slaying it, hats off Ms Lianne La Havas. Dig the broken glass mirror motif in the video too. Love everything about this. You got a new fan forever.
