Artist description
This L.A.-based singer recently completed her debut solo album with producer Jarrett Michaels, who previously worked with pop/R&B star, Brandy. Larissa's voice has been described as powerful, soulful and passionate. Her music reflects various influences from rock to jazz and reveals carefully constructed lyrics and melody. Larissa's musical journey began at age five when her mother insisted that she take piano lessons. She wrote her first song at age 13 and began performing in front of large audiences by age 14. After graduating from UCLA in 1997, Larissa joined the management team at indie label NSOUL Records. She left her position as chief financial officer in 1999 to focus on singing full-time. She has previously done vocal session work and toured nationally with the singing group Nitro Praise. The three albums she recorded with the group were released in the US and internationally on NSoul Records. |
