Lachi

"Lachi plays bright, soulful, piano-driven pop and cathartically sings about perseverance...a stirring album." -The Onnion AV Club Lachi, an NYC singer-songwriter, has garnered widespread attention, with a great band performing throughout the Northeast. On July 27 she released a long awaited, self-titled album (distributed through EMI/Caroline) and had a CD release show July 22 at Joe's Pub in NYC. In the album her knack for blending hauntingly honest and personal lyrics with breezy, appealing melodies shines brightly. Legally blind and supported by blind band members, Lachi’s sociopolitical and poignant lyrics are often inspired by the stigmas of her visual impairment. She spreads a message of “realism” and “acceptance.” She has been featured on Oprah Radio, The Onion AV Club Newsletter, CW 11, TimeOut NY, NYU News, CBS Radio's Artistfirst Network, NPR, SxSW, CMJ and Pridefest Milwaukee where she and her band opened up for Patti LaBelle. "...gorgeous voice and nice, catchy melodies" -CMJ "an absolutely fantastic artist" -CBS Radio's Artistfirst Network "...redefines raw talent." -CW Morning News
