Laura Pergolizzi, known to the world as LP, was born in New York but moved to Los Angeles to find her spot in the center of the singer-songwriter world. With her unique presence, somewhere between Chrissie Hynde and Patti Smith, her outstanding vocals and undisputable songwriting skills, LP took one step at a time until she reached her breakthrough moment. Although her debut album was out in 2001, she had to wait until 2012 and the release of the hit single “Into The Wild” to be recognized as one of the best upcoming artists. At the same time, she was making her mark as a composer, offering songs to the biggest pop stars of this era, like The Backstreet Boys, Christina Aguilera, Rita Ora and of course Rihanna where her track, “Cheers (Drink To That)”, reached the top 10 of the US Charts.
The local fans know really well what happened next. In 2016, “Lost On You” became the biggest hit in the country and soon the rest of the world would follow. Of course, the list with her outstanding songs is enormous. “Tokyo Sunrise”, “Levitator”, “Wasted Love”, “Someday”, “Fighting With Myself” as well the singles that stood out from her latest album (written during the lockdowns) like “One Last Time”, “When We Touch” and “The One That You Love” have reached millions of plays and billions of streams, proving that the honestyand drive of an artist will never go unnoticed.
