Her family’s diverse taste was very influential, when she was a child, her grandparents babysat her often: “They’re from Jamaica, so when I was growing up I listened to a lot of religious reggae–almost hymns, but in a reggae style–on cassettes. But at the same time my mother was listening to a lot of '80s and '90s Michael Jackson, and Mary J Blige, who I loved from a very early age. Plus India Arie, Jill Scott and The Fugees”. Lianne’s biggest hits include “Green and Gold”, “Unstoppable”, “Gone”, as well as an incredible cover of Dionne Warwick's “I Say a Little Prayer”, and a show stopping Tiny Desk performance for NPR Music. Her catalogue also includes the albums “Blood” and “Is Your Love Big Enough”. Lianne announces the release of a two-part video with and for singles “Elusive“ and “Gone“. Director Colin Solal Cardo (La Blogotheque) said of their partnership: “I've been collaborating with Lianne for more than a year now, but working on this project felt like something completely new. Lianne's a brilliant storyteller, there's a true cinematic quality to her songs. When you listen to them, you go through all these emotions and narratives, like a collection of short movies. We felt like it was finally time to build a world around these songs, give life to these love stories and let Lianne actually become these characters. Be it a candid young girl falling in love, or a heartbroken femme fatale in the middle of the woods. I feel fortunate for the trust relationship I have with Lianne, it's something any music video director has to cherish because it's rare and precious. Ultimately, that's what allows an ambitious project like this one to exist.“ Video Credits Directeor: Colin Solal Cardo Director of Photography: Fabien Benzaquen Art Direction / Stylism: Colin Johnco & Ylva Falk Editor: David Poucet Color Grading: Julien Hery (Royal Post) Produced by La Blogothèque: Matthieu Buchsenschutz & Chryde Subscribe to the Lianne La Havas channel for all the best and latest official music videos, behind the scenes and live performances. #LianneLaHavas #Gone #Blood
