Hey there-thanks for checking out my site-!If you dont know me- well let me sum it up short...:
My name is Laila
I..m a singer and a songwriter- from Oslo, Norway- I..ve made music as long as I can remember-always loved to sing- played in many different bands. In -98 I joined an all girl band called The Tuesdays , we were signed to Arista records in NY 1998 by Clive Davis-
Released an album-and a single ( " It..s up to you" ) in the US and Europe that peaked at 54th on the Billboard hot 100 chart. The album did well and it was a true adventure!
In 2000 after being on the road for a while -I left the band cause I wanted to consentrate more on writing songs. Signed a publishing deal the same year with EMI -I was there untill last year -when I signed a new ppublishing deal with Warner Chappell Music-
I just love to write for other artists- and have the opportunity to mix up the styles- I..ve written pop, rock, R&B, soul and country- I don..t really like to label music too much- and I have love for all genres-
all I try to do is write a good song-...........
But something is in the air lately-
and I feel like playing live again-.... so maybe ......just maybe..... I..ll write songs for myself - Thanx for checking out my site!
appreciate it-***
