Description
British singer/songwriter/guitarist Lianne La Havas has emerged as one of the UK's most buzzed-about new talents, with critically acclaimed EPs, sold-out shows worldwide and nods from the likes of Bon Iver and Ryan Adams . Esquire (UK) calls her the "songbird from London who pairs honeyed vocals with delicately finger-picked acoustic guitar" and says, "Her performances have a mesmerizing effect." La Havas' debut album, Is Your Love Big Enough? , will be released in the US on August 7, 2012, via Nonesuch Records. The album was recorded in Brooklyn and Los Angeles last summer and produced by Matt Hales (Aqualung). Watch the official video for the title track below. Stay tuned for exclusive pre-order details to be announced shortly. Since her appearance on the BBC's Later ... with Jools Holland in the fall of 2011, the excitement around Lianne has quickly spread across the UK, Europe and the US. Appearing on that same episode of Later ... was Bon Iver , which quickly led to an offer for Lianne to open their December North American tour. "As soon as we saw her play it was so refreshing; somebody who could play their instrument, somebody who could use their voice, but in their own way. She is just fantastic," Bon Iver's Justin Vernon told Esquire (UK). La Havas says that Is Your Love Big Enough? "acts almost like a map of the route I have taken through life, through love, in the past three years. The title is a question that mixes challenge, defiance, impatience, determination, pride, and, above all, passion. It demands an answer." La Havas was nominated for the BBC's Sound of 2012 honor and was chosen as one of MTV's Hot Tips for 2012 . 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.
