Dubbed ‘the people’s princess’, Sheffield native Lavelle is a UK based independent singer/songwriter from the historic Steel City who has quickly cemented herself in South Yorkshire’s history as one of the North’s hottest exports and a critically acclaimed one to watch. Â
Â
Lavelle’s first 5 releases, “Baby Boy”, “Honest”, “Number 42”, “Higher Self” & “Chest” all debuted at Number 1 on the UK iTunes RnB/Soul charts, a feat never seen before from a northern artist. With her authentic sound – inspired by ‘90s sonics, sassy lyrics, catchy hooks and feel-good melodies – it’s not hard to see why.Â

After an unstoppable run in 2024 and starting this year topping ‘Ones to Watch’ lists across the board from Amazon UK’s +44 to BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra, being shortlisted for MOBO Unsung’s Class of 2025 and having a locker full of fresh hits and features to release, 2025 looks set to be a groundbreaking year for this rising South Yorkshire starlet. Â
