Turning shy reflections into songs fans wouldn't let her keep to herself, LYVIA has seen a loyal community grow around heartfelt, poetic lyrics. Having started out rapping and laying hooks for MCs in a local community studio, she now moves freely between soul, pop and rap with a writer's ear for rhythm and rhyme. After years busking in Nottingham, she broke through when a clip filmed on Maid Marian Way, mug of tea in hand, woke her up to a million views, carrying her from street corner to touring Europe with Tinashe.
