MY BIOG:
Influenced by the songwriting of U2, Alanis Morissette and Franz Ferdinand and the vocal prowess of Bill Withers and Stevie Wonder, Lyla cathartically weaves provocative, personal, meditative, universal and quirky experiences into uplifting, catchy and palatable songs for people of all ages to both identify with and enjoy.
Lyla is a London based rock/soul singer songwriter who has been performing across the UK, Europe and Australasia for the past eight years. Working with the producers such as Mike Rowe (Rolling Stones, Oasis, Sheryl Crow), Clive Lendich (Boys II Men, Jermaine Jackson), Tim Dudfield (Ce Ce Peniston), Greystoke Productions (Elton John, Lemar) she has gained publishing credits with SonyBMG, Sony (France), Zomba Music (Australia) and Ministry of Sound.
In between these projects, she has been working full time as a session singer and lead vocalist for a number of top UK corporate and original bands performing for the likes of Shirley Bassey, Mick Jagger, Plymouth Music Festival, Mainz Music Festival (Germany), Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras and at venues including the Jazz Café, Sydney Opera House and Hotel de Paris (Monaco).
As a result of years fronting bands alongside world class musicians including Ian Gibbons (The Kinks), PJ Phillips (Vanessa Mae, Rod Stewart), Pete Adams (Tom Jones) to name a few, Lyla has been moulded into a consummate performer with the agility to both engage and entertain an audience of 80 to 10,000.
"Thank you so much for helping me find my own vocal style. You gave me the confidence to go out there and start auditioning again. I have recently been picked to front a band and I cant wait to get out there and perform!" Susie, High Barnet.
“A strong and confident singer, I have seen Lyla go leaps and bounds to become an artist who has now found her niche and thriving in it.” Francesca Wilkins, Festival/Mushroom Records
“A pintsize powerhouse! Lyla has a rich resonant voice that demands attention with a range that is seemingly endless. Yet aside from her charismatic stage presence and playful nature, it is her songs that people go away raving about.” Editor Drum Media, Australia
“A powerful singer/songwriter reminiscent of Anastacia & Macy Gray” Daniela Djuric, A&R Warner Music
Warrick Hornby, The Whitlams, Warner Music
