Music has always been at the core of Léa’s world. Raised in a home filled with sound, her father’s studio next door and her brothers' love of jazz and pop guiding her tastes, it was on her 15th birthday that Léa Sen was gifted her first guitar by her parents. From childhood, she knew she wanted to be a pop star, posing in front of the mirror in her family’s apartment and writing down song ideas, listening to everything from Ariana Grande to Jazz to Sufjan Stevens. The French singer, songwriter and producer’s music reflects that vast sonic palette, with its warm, smudged guitars, scattered glitches of electronics, jittering percussion, all topped with her mellifluous and inviting vocal.
In 2019, after experiencing a personal loss Léa Sen moved from Paris to London alone, barely speaking English and threw herself into music. A scary but successful gambit – by 2021, Léa’s voice was constantly on UK radio, singing on Joy Orbison’s glorious ‘better’. She’s worked with the likes of Sampha and Vegyn, all while building on her own artistry, with both her solo EPs, You of Now pts. 1 & 2, receiving acclaim in The FADER, The Guardian, Crack, & Dazed. Her forthcoming debut album LEVELS is the result of that relentless pursuit—an intricate, cinematic album that captures the beauty, fear, and exhilaration of constant change.
