LVRA

Born in Edinburgh to Chinese parents, 23-year-old singer and producer Rachel Lu emerged in 2020 under the moniker LVRA (pronounced loo-rah), an artist who draws from the molten core of industrial, hyperpop and deconstructed club music to crystallise a sound that’s both anthemic and experimental. Influenced by the likes of Grimes, Eartheater, LCY, Two Shell, Breaka and SOPHIE – LVRA is part of a new wave of artists providing a vital vision of club music that’s equally suited to the stadium as the basement. The critically acclaimed artist won the inaugural Sound of Young Scotland Award in 2021, Amazon Music’s Step Up 2022 and has gained plaudits from the likes of DMY (Artist to Watch ‘23), Radio 1, BBC Introducing, Radio 1 Dance, DJ Mag, PAPER, DIY, The Line of Best Fit and more.
