UpClose 2026: Liang Lawrence

Liang Lawrence

Liang Lawrence is a singer-songwriter currently creating and performing in the UK. Her debut EP ‘letters to myself’ was released in August 2023 and racked up over 1 million streams in a matter of weeks. Having grown up in 8 different countries before she was 18, Liang’s ability to find a home everywhere she goes is reflected in her borderless audience with listeners around the world. Liang was drawn to music as a source of grounding consistency – painting pictures with words, Liang taught herself to play guitar and write songs from her bedroom, she found in music a love for story telling and a way to express the messy emotions of everyday life. Liang’s raw and honest tunes lean into indie folk, soft rock and electronic territories in the vein of Clairo, The Japanese House, beabadoobee, boygenius and Lizzy McAlpine. Most recently, Liang has played a BBC Introducing Showcase and supported artists including Adam Melchor, Will Joseph Cook, Sophie May, Bully, Olive Klug and New Rules.
