Lhasa is a live project originally conceived at 37d03d festival in Berlin in August 2018. This special evening celebrates the life and work of Mexican-American singer-songwriter Lhasa de Sela. An eclectic line-up of artists will bring
Lhasa’s multi-lingual songs and music to life on the Barbican stage.
Lhasa de Sela died of breast cancer, aged 37, in Montreal on New Year’s Day in 2010 and it was said that it started to snow and didn't stop for four days. She created three extraordinary albums over the course of 12 years and won various awards, including the Québécois Félix (1997), a Canadian Juno (1998), and picked up the title of ‘Best Artist of The Americas’ at the BBC World Music Awards (2005). She was known for creating music that was infused with an appreciation of various genres, from country and gospel, to Mexican and gypsy folk melodies.
