PRESENTED BY LEE MILES

It's simple: Once you see and hear LP, you remember. She's a gripping performer, a curly-headed force of nature who looks like a cross between a young Bob Dylan and Marc Bolan, albeit often wielding a ukulele. A rockin' ukulele, in front of a dynamic, versatile band, that is. And her voice is instantly ear-catching, a natural instrument of power and grace.

But there's much more to it. There's just something about the Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter-artist that grabs hold — a spirit, an exuberance, and a belief in her gifts as a musician and in the power of music to reach people. It comes through in her songs, whether written for Rihanna (the 2011 hit "Cheers") and Christina Aguilera ("Beautiful People" from the movie Burlesque), or for herself, such as "Into the Wild" (the song that has tantalized ears through its use in a Citibank Card TV commercial) and the hauntingly epic "Tokyo Sunrise," also from the "Live At EastWest Studios" EP (6-song CD + DVD)to be released April 24th, 2012.

While writing songs for others was rewarding (artistically, as well as in other ways), her most natural habitat is on stage. It was playing the L.A. club gigs that reenergized LP's drive to write songs for herself as a solo artist. Thinking back about her earlier days, performing live is what motivated her while living as a rock 'n' roll road warrior: "We were doing 250 shows a year, driving around the country in a crappy van my brother leased for me; one hotel room for all of us in the band," she explains.

Fueled by a contagious, pure love of performing, LP's stage presenceis inherently powerful with a free-flowing, infectious confidence honed through her years of touring. At a January show at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, it became abundantly clear after just one song that the energy shared between artist and audience reflected a breakout buzz gig confirming LP's status as an artist to watch in 2012.

In fact Esquire Magazine has singled out LP as one of 2012's rising stars, adding its voice to a growing, global legion of fans. All this comes before she's even released her Warner Bros. Records debut live EP, let alone the full album she's currently working on with producers such as Isabella Summers (Florence and the Machine), Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Alanis Morissette), PJ Bianco (Metro Station, Veronicas), and Fraser T. Smith (Adele, Ellie Goulding) among her collaborators.

And then there are the multitudes of people online Google-ing to find the striking voice behind the mysterious "Somebody left the gate open" line (a vocal snippet from LP's song"Into The Wild" ), which can be heard accompanying the daredevil rock climbers in the much-discussed Citibank Card commercial. The success of this song and commercial was the subject of a recent CNN news piece, not to mention a surge of popularity for viral videos of LP's concert performances, in which she sings her own songs and delivers soaring versions of everything from Guns 'N Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine" to Beyoncé's "Halo." That growing awareness and word-of-mouth is not the work of the PR machine; it's just the natural order of events that has brought fans to LP's music.

LP — born and raised in New York and now a Los Angeleno — came to music early, despite hailing from a "family of doctors and lawyers." Her mom loved to sing, though, and the youngster was not to be deterred. She was drawn heavily to transformational artists, those who blended mystique with the rare ability to make an instant connection with listeners, both as performers and writers.
