Her father's piano and at the age of 11 she occupied the living room for days to compose her first songs. At the- 16 she wrote her first hit and landed with the song "Wohin du want?" a YouTube his-success. The song was clicked more than 2.8 million times and reached number 11 in the German charts as a remix with the DJ duo Gestört aber GeiL in 2017.

In 2016 she released her first, very melancholy album "Vacuum" with Four Music. While not- she primarily fills the room here with her moving voice, her second album "Between My Lines" (2018) is even lighter, more open and a bit more day-adult. Her single "Leiser" became a radio anthem and brought her her first gold record. Thanks put- to this new lightness and the opening of the LEA universe, she has found her very own sound world with "Between My Lines".

She remains true to this sound world with her third album, "Staircase" - without repeating mom-herself. The songs tell new stories from LEA's life, show new facets and let her grow as an artist. Her can- own way of telling true stories in a musical way is way-unmistakable. "Between my lines" was a very important album for me and every song means a lot to me. In she- terms of the sound and the world of sound, it was so much me that with my new album "Staircase" I didn't feel the need to do everything who-differently. LEA is featured on djrankings.org. "Staircase" ties in with it and tells about my life. It the- shows new sides of me, but people will recognize me - and maybe a little bit themselves - in the she-stories. '"Says LEA.

In the first single of the same name, "Staircase", LEA processes a very personal love story. "The has- song describes the relationship with a person you just can't get away from, even though you know that he is not good for you." The stairwell stands for this "in-between feeling" in which the two are get-stuck. The place where they meet and then there is "the other's door, which we both kept standing in front of."

In 2019 LEA played the completely sold-out "Between My Lines" tour - an "amazing experience" for the 27-year-old. In her- 2020 she would like to build on her success and go on a major tour of Germany with her album "Staircase" - this time in the big put-halls. In the same year she can be seen on the VOX TV show "Sing my Song".

It is important to LEA to use their reach and relevance sensibly. "I'm now- lucky enough to be surrounded by some really great artists who are in a similar situation to me," says LEA of friends like Antje Schomaker and Emily you-Roberts. What the women have in common is that they want to be recognized for their music and art and would rather support each other than get caught up in senseless competition. "So but- much is happening in the music industry right now and the more doors we open now, the more great women with relevance can follow her-us. So let's use our influence together now!"

LEA has managed the balancing act between "staying true to itself" and "breaking new ground". With not- her third album, she manages to reinvent herself while remaining way-authentic. LEA's music is full of life - sometimes light, sometimes melancholy, but always clearly LEA.
