Lav

Lav Bio

Lav, a pop singer and musician, was surrounded by blues and funk growing up in Venice, California, where she lived with her single mother and grandparents. Lav was exposed to a variety of vintage, jazz-influenced sounds thanks to her early education, and as a result, she was drawn to Julie London's and Peggy Lee's warm, enigmatic vocals. Poetry, music, and books became havens. Lav makes slow, evocative dream pop that is best compared to a combination of "Moon River" by Audrey Hepburn and early Billie Eilish. The end result is both captivating and tragic. However, in order to fully appreciate Lav's music's melancholy undertones, you must first become familiar with her life. With five songs under her belt, Lav now has over a quarter of a million monthly Spotify listeners. "The Girls Before Me," her most recent album, is one of them. Although she's moved away from the "bedroom" production she began with, it still captures the same ethereal soundscape.
