Born Olivia Emeodi, Livy Land grew up surrounded by music. She was weaned off the songs of Mariah Carey, Solange and Kendrick Lamar while the works of Niniola, Adele and SZA influence her style. Livy Land also finds inspiration is the effervescence of nature. She is in awe of nature’s beauty, her gentle whispers and consistent rhythm.
A lover of life, colour and soul, Livy’s music tells unique and relatable stories with an effortless musical economy that sets her apart.
In a chat with Weekend Beats, Livy explains the inspiration behind her latest record. “This song expresses the pains of people in abusive relationships. People who are hurt and in pain and are wondering if it’s time to let go.”
On an introspective debut, brimming with confidence, ability and promise.
