It’s an exciting time for indie R&B/Soul artist Lilla. One week after graduating from Berklee College of Music, she released her second self-produced album, The Awakening. Over the summer she hit the festival circuit, appearing on main stages across both coasts. Backed by her hard-hitting band and armed with a collection of soulful original tunes, few modern performers bring the class, presence, and talent that Lilla brings to the stage.
The Portland, Oregon native has played in many different countries, from Kingston, Jamaica to Beijing, China, working with an impressive array of artists including Ciara, Damian and Stephen Marley, Talib Kweli, Esperanza Spalding, Wu-Tang Clan, Annie Lennox, Willie Nelson, Carole King, Kenny G, and Boyz II Men.
Recorded all over the map, from Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong studio in Jamaica to Lilla’s home town of Portland, her new album The Awakening is a celebration of the power of music and its ability to connect musicians, cultures, and people from around the globe.
She has now released the feel good, free spirited music video for her new single “I Changed My Mind.”

Loooove this tune! Kinda reminds me of Roy Hargrove.. How come I have’t heard of her before? Nice groove n soulful voice.
A hot, sharp band with a hot soulful vocal equals a sizzling, prime vibe. Will be listening
