Биография

Liyah Bey is an L.A. based singer-songwriter known for blending her love of classic R&B with modern pop aesthetics to create powerful settings for her extraordinary vocal chops. Born-and-raised in Israel, Liyah was encouraged to nurture her natural talent by her mother from a very young age and began writing at the age of 17. Liyah was obsessed with American musical artists and drew inspiration from Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Carol King, Prince, and Michael Jackson. Liyah knew it was time to leave her home behind and go straight to the source. In New York, Liyah found herself being embraced by many generations of artists, recording in the Sony Studios with Kool and the Gang and even stepping in for Lauryn Hill to perform onstage with the Fugees. Liyah was determined to follow her own path and decided it was time to focus on her writing. Excited by the musical scene in Los Angeles, she relocated to the west coast where she worked feverishly to hone her already seasoned songwriting. Her first single, “Can’t Stop Loving You,” a heartbreaking ballad showcasing Liyah’s expressive vocal power and fluid emotional range has, in short order, has garnered 100,000 views on and has primed her rapidly expanding fanbase for what is to come: the fierce, playful, neo-soul- pop of “Million Dollar Girl.” Liyah is currently preparing an album for release in 2018
