LO LA’s Newest Single Is A Summer Staple
Samantha Colleran, July 2020
LO LA is a star in the making. She’s dedicated her life to making music since the young age of 10, and in 2018 she made her first release with her single “Can’t Keep Helping Myself”. Not only does she have a number of single releases under her belt, she’s performed with a number of stars including Mick Fleetwood (Fleetwood Mac) at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in 2018! LO LA is an unsigned artist, she releases everything without a label and has been extremely successful doing so. Her cover of Lana Del Rey’s “Queen of Disaster” was #1 for two weeks on an Indonesian music chart for Pro2Bdl International Radio Chart in June. She has a unique pop sound that separates her from her counterparts, and that statement is only further proven in her most recent single release, “Cherries & Lemonade”!
Prior to this recent release, nearly all of LO LA’s songs were written about heartbreak. With “Cherries & Lemonade”, LO LA explores a happier and more upbeat sound. The song draws some inspiration from Harry Styles’ “Watermelon Sugar”, with a fun summer vibe and sweet lyrics that make you want to head to the nearest beach and “soak in sunshine”. The beat was created by a friend of LO LA’s named Dariush who produced a couple of her other tracks. The lyrics were written with her friend Dominic during quarantine; with the happy and upbeat feel of the lyrics, LO LA hopes to remind people of the carefree and fun times pre-COVID and give them something positive to look forward to.
LO LA sings with a soft and bubbly voice that instantly grabs your attention from the first verse, “Warm breeze/ Touches my cheek/ I’m in paradise”. “Cherries & Lemonade” will most definitely leave you in a “Summery state of mind”, and that’s exactly why it should be the next addition to your summer playlist! I know it’s certainly on mine!
