Today, we’re thrilled to chat with Manchester’s rising star, Lusaint in an interview led by Abbey Road producer Rob Cass. With over 50 million streams, Lusaint’s unique blend of jazz and blues has captured hearts worldwide.
Her 2019 cover of Chris Isaak’s ‘Wicked Game’ broke records, earning over 11 million YouTube views and the most Shazams in 24 hours. Lusaint’s success includes collaborations with CHANEL, Dior, and an appearance at London Fashion Week 2023. She’s also been praised by Wonderland Magazine and BBC Radio 1.
In this episode, Lusaint shares her musical journey and treats us to two exclusive acoustic performances. She opens up about her early days singing in church with her grandma every Sunday, how Ella Fitzgerald’s voice inspired her, and what it was like growing up as a shy child who wanted to connect with people through her gift of music.
