Lakin Music

Lakin is one of those rare artists that can be both raw and refined—expressing deeply personal truths with poetic lyrics and stately songwriting. Garnering favorable comparisons to John Mayer, Sara Bareilles, & Alicia Keys, Lakin has the distinction of opening for such acts as Sheryl Crow, Colbie Caillat, Brian McKnight. In addition to these marquee engagements, Lakin remains a fixture around college campuses, having played 100 colleges across the US over the past few years.

A native Southern Californian, Lakin grew up in a musical household. Her father is an accomplished jazz musician who toured with George Benson. Lakin’s mother taught her how to play piano, and introduced her to the cathartic process of writing poetry.

Her latest album, Silent Conversations, showcases these influences, engaging the painfully challenging intersection between love and loss. This aptly-titled collection of folk-influenced soul-pop unfolds a narrative of salvation through honesty.
