Biography

Hi ! I am Lina Stalyte, a Lithuanian singer-songwriter based in Paris, creating soulful compositions that explore themes of identity, love, and self-discovery. My music blends Baltic influences with neo-soul, jazz, folk, and R&B, often compared to Lianne La Havas, Corinne Bailey Rae, and Jorja Smith.

I distinguish myself through the fusion of femininity, sensuality, and empowerment with modern grooves and Baltic roots. My performances are designed to be immersive and emotional, offering audiences an experience that is both intimate and powerful.
