Upcoming Shows
June 11th @ The Knitting Factory, NYC
Sultry, smooth, intelligent and bold, singer/songwriter and pianist Lachi commands
cleverly crafted, insightful yet quirky lyrics in her new EP "Ugly Beautiful"
best categorized as piano-driven, jazz-influenced alternative rock. Partly
inspired by the trials and tribulations she faces as a legally blind Nigerian-American
female from her shy childhood to her world-traveling adulthood, her lyrics steer away
from mediocrity and carry with them a message of natural beauty and internal conflict.
She holds a deep connection with her music, which can be felt and shared by everyone
who watches her on stage. One fan said, "Lachi's music and her whole being is quite
touching to me. her songs are honest from the heart and her voice is a classic."
Another voiced that Lachi "is so passionate when she sings. You really can feel her
pain, her joy, or her struggle."

The "Ugly Beautiful" EP is being physically distributed regionally through Borders Books and Music and digitally distributed world-wide through leading distributor Music Just Music&tm;, making it available on digital avenues such as Itunes, MSNmusic, SONYconnect, Nokia, Starbucks and countless others. With an increasing influx of FM and internet radio play requests, along with a green light in licensing through Pump Audio Licensing, Lachi is proving to be one of New York City’s great new emerging artists. "We Can Fly," a featured track which speaks of the ability to overcome struggles against odds, has reviewed positively, described as "hit worthy" by Pam Southwell of RPW Records. The track has been placed on the CMJ New Music Report and Sampler 09, the Violet Femme's compilation album distributed by RPW Records, DirtBag Records's Navy Seals Tribute album, and the Girl Power compilation album distributed by Acoustic Fuel.
She performs regularly with her band of talented musicians (most of whom are also visually impaired) at universities, night club venues, festivals and private events. She has supported acclaimed artists Petra Haden, Annie Quick and Emiko. Her live performances entice and involve her audiences performing songs from her Albums and fan favorites not included on the album.

I believe that the most expressive device one could ever pour into poetry, lyrics
and spoken word of any form is solid emotion in its purist, unadulterated form.
The best poetry is not written at at a desk or in a classroom. The best words are
those words that seep out from a heart teeming with sadness, anger, joy, lust and
even emptiness. The most poignant words do not come from the mouth.
