Marty Duda's artist of the week

London-born singer-songwriter Lianne La Havas has two big appearances coming up in Auckland this weekend…both as the opening act for Coldplay at Mt Smart Stadium and as the headliner at the more intimate Tuning Fork. Lianne has produced two albums to date, creating a contemporary r&b sound that has been compared to Sade and Corinne Bailey Rae. She also collaborated with Prince on his 2014 album, Art Official Age.
