Vana Liya

Genre-busting vocalist and songwriter Vana Liya made a serendipitous arrival on the national music scene after she posted several ukulele covers of popular reggae songs to social media, which garnered the support of top original artists and led to a 2018 record deal with band Pepper's L.A.-based LAW Records. She has since been quickly earning a reputation among many of her well-established musical peers as a solid collaborator who always brings a fresh take and positive energy to the mix with her distinct yet not easily classifiable “island” vibe. Johnny Cosmic of Stick Figure signed on to produce her debut album, Little Kahuna, released in September 2021.  Cosmic is currently working on Vana's sophomore record scheduled to release in 2027.
