The new LADY KING single "Light Up" carries the right amount of groove, soul, and intimacy. I absolutely love the instrumentation which is drenched with elements from funk music and is the perfect stage for her unconventional and playful vocals.

The Australian artist finds inspiration from a wide range of genres, with a particular fondness for modern soul/R&B acts such as Raveena, Joy Crookes, and Snoh Aalegra. Her passion for grand arrangements and harmonies can be traced back to her enduring love for artists like Sade, Alicia Keys, and Roberta Flack. Lara's musical journey started at the age of 10 when she started playing the piano and will surely continue towards LADY KING taking over some world stages, because "Light Up" is nothing short of stunning.

"This song is about that passionate spark when you meet someone for the first time and the exciting feelings that come when you lean into love." shares LADY KING.
