Lulla LayLa: Japanese singer songwriter, vocals and tanbur
Lulla LayLa (formerly Lulla Miyuki) is a Japanese Singer Songwriter, Composer and Singer originally based in Tokyo, Japan. Since 2000, she has made her creative home in New York City. Lulla LayLa’s music has Japanese traditional elements combined with a psychedelic/contemporary world folk sensibility. Her music delivers haunting piano ballads about love and many other subjects. Since 2017, she has also been composing songs with and accompany herself on the Kurdish tanbur. With this instrument, her sound takes on an even more exotic folk sensibility. The theme of her songs/poems never changes, but when writing for tanbur she does utilize a more simplified lyric with a repetitive structure that will leave a magical impression on your heart. You may also find these songs to be influenced by Sufi music. On several occasions audience members from different parts of the world have said to Lulla LayLa, ” Your music makes me nostalgic because your music seems like my country’s music,” even though she was not familiar with or hadn’t heard their country’s songs. She loves the idea of folk or devotional music bringing people together.
