Shay Lia is a woman of the world - born in France, raised in the small, lesser known East African country of Djibouti (on the northeast coast of the Horn of Africa) and currently residing in Montreal. Her soulful offerings smoothly pack multiple genres and dive into a concise, sonic + visual narrative of her self-discovery.

'SOLARIS' follows Shay's debut EP, Dangerous, which was released last year to critical acclaim and featured the likes of KAYTRANADA, Buddy, BADBADNOTGOOD and Shaun Ross - a project which earned her a Polaris Prize nomination. An Amazon Music 2020 One to Watch, most recently, Shay received a nod of approval from Michelle Obama who included her 2019 single ‘Good Together’ in her #BlackGirlMagic Spotify playlist.
