Vana Liya
Genre-busting vocalist and
songwriter Vana Liya made a serendipitous arrival on the music scene after she
posted several ukulele covers of popular reggae songs to social media, which
garnered the support of top original artists and led to a 2018 record deal with
band Pepper's L.A.-based LAW Records, becoming their first female and first
solo artist. She has since been quickly earning a reputation among many of her
well-established musical peers as a solid collaborator who always brings a
fresh take and positive energy to the mix with her distinct yet not easily
classifiable "island" vibe.
?Johnny Cosmic of Stick Figure
signed on to produce her debut album, Little Kahuna, released in September
2021. Cosmic is currently working on Vana's sophomore record.
