I just want my music to make people feel something—whether it’s laughing, crying, or both.” For LYVIA, music is more than self-expression; it’s her way of connecting to the world and creating a safe space for her audience to be unapologetically themselves.

Hailing from Nottingham, LYVIA’s journey began in the most authentic way possible—busking on street corners and honing her craft in a local community recording studio. “I grew up writing with my best mates in St. Anne’s,” she recalls. “I was this shy girl watching these incredibly confident boys rap about their lives. Eventually, they gave me the push to turn my spoken word into songs, and that changed everything.”

Now, LYVIA’s music is a fearless fusion of soulful melodies, spoken-word verses, and raw, heart-on-sleeve lyricism that resonates with listeners around the globe. Influenced by artists like Amy Winehouse, Lauryn Hill, and Pink, she brings an emotional honesty and boldness to her craft. “Music is the only time my brain is quiet—it’s my pure flow state,” she explains.

Her viral corner side performance videos, showcasing stripped-back street performances, have become her signature, racking up millions of views and earning her co-signs from the artists she grew up listening to. These performances reflect her roots and connect with her ever-growing audience on an intimate level, proving that LYVIA’s authenticity is her superpower. With a sold-out debut UK headline tour under her belt, LYVIA is now stepping further into the spotlight. Her live shows are electric and deeply personal, offering fans an experience that feels like both a celebration and a safe space. “I want my shows to feel like a warm, happy community where people can just be themselves,” she says. As she prepares to release her next chapter of music, LYVIA stays grounded in her mission: “I just want to remind people that being yourself is the coolest thing you can do.” With her undeniable talent, relatable storytelling, and unwavering commitment to authenticity, LYVIA is carving out her place as one of the most compelling voices in music today.
