LADY KING is the solo project of Thai x Australian-born singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and educator Lara King. Residing in Gadigal country (Sydney), Lara began her musical journey at age 10 studying classical cello, piano and singing. Lara’s musical influences are drawn from a wide range of styles embedded in classical, soul, R&B, jazz, disco and pop. Her love for live instrumentation, harmony and arrangement is executed through the use of strings, horns, enchanting vocals and soulful grooves drawing comparisons to acts such as Raveena, Joy Crookes, and Snoh Aelegra. After releasing her debut single I Want You Bad (2018), Lara was featured at 2SER’s Women Who Rock (2019) event and Women in Music Empowerment Day (2018). She was selected as FBI’s artist of the week (2022) and has received praise from local radio stations including FBI and 2SER.
