Lina is an active gigging and recording alternative artist based in Long Island, NY. After completing a graduate degree in neuroscience focusing on sound perception and emotion in 2021, Lina jump-started her professional musical career in London, UK. Discovering and self-navigating the world of music production, publishing and promotion Lina built up her audience, first as a solo artist with her debut EP “Mind Games” gaining over a million streams, before forming a full band and supporting Tom Meighan (formerly Kasabian) nationwide across eight O2 Academy locations in the UK. Delving beyond the surface to build her unique and authentic sound, Lina learned from and collaborated with notable producers, engineers, and musicians locally and internationally eventually settling into a creative partnership with Dean Aladay (credits from ROLI) to write and produce her second newly-released EP "You're My Only Friend" with another production credit from Pete Hutchings (Royal Blood) later acclaimed by the likes of Wonderland, Notion, Earmilk, and Ladygunn magazines. Playing a few shows in Long Island over the summer, Lina and Dean continuously refine their live performances by incorporating latest technologies to distinguish their sound and meet new fans. Writing their next EP planned to release in Spring 2024, Lina and Dean hope to showcase their sound and elevate their artistry to new heights.
