Bio

Born in Germany and raised in London, Arlissa discovered her passion for songwriting from a young age. Influenced by artists — Jeff Buckley, Elton John, and Nina Simone — Arlissa put out a series of stripped-back D.I.Y. singles, which led to successes including sell-out shows in London, New York City, and L.A., and hits such as “Hearts Ain’t Gonna Lie”, which was later reimagined by multi-platinum producer Jonas Blue.

Her long-anticipated album The OPEN-HEARTED, released on 6 October 2023, features collaborations with Duckwrth, Toni Thomas, and a handful of established producers including Ebenezer (Stefflon Don, Ty Dolla $ign), Sky Adams (Doja Cat, Kylie Minogue, Zak Abel), and Peter ‘Neros’ Ibsen (Lana Del Rey, BTS, Jessie J).

2024 is set to be a big year for Arlissa, with multiple projects on the go. She now splits her time between London and L.A. to work, write, and create.

Previous brand partnerships and campaigns include Chanel, Reformation, Free People, Tiffany, Bvlgari, Hugo Boss, Maje, Max Mara, and Mejuri.
