I missed the boat on Lianne La Havas, and I have no excuse. Since 2011, the British singer has released two critically acclaimed albums and been featured on NPR and Pitchfork.

Yet the first time I saw her name was scrolling through a list of upcoming concerts. Better late than never. La Havas’ voice immediately captured my attention. Pure, smooth, delicate, full, it’s deserving of more adjectives than there is time or space for. Hers is the kind of voice that reminds you just how rare it is to hear an exceptional singer.
