Lianne La Havas–A Take Away Show and a Black Cab Session

Dec 22nd, 2011 in Music

Having opened for Bon Iver on the most recent leg of their tour, Lianne La Havas has been garnering deserved huzzahs.  Check out her performance of her song, No Room for Doubt, captured by La Blogotheque’s Take-Away Shows while La Havas ambled around Montmartre in Paris recently (we like the contributed street-percussion).  And then watch the Londoner sing Age (in which she gives hope to old folks) on a Black Cab Session.  Remind you of anybody?  We hear the late Phoebe Snow mixed with Norah combined with Joan Armatrading.

  • Failure to read Lefort can lead to music slop-piness. Glad to hear you’re catching up.

  • i’m discovering her late in the game (thanks to failure to read lefort; redemption thanks to NPR earlier this month)… and i’m happily lost in it. i’m hearing corinne bailey rae with teeth… the tunes are visiting me in the watches of the night and singing me back to sleep.
