About this listen
Larissa Lambert is one of Australia’s brightest R&B stars with over 200 million streams to the name.
Her story has never been linear - it’s a series of sliding doors moments. In this episode, we trace the chain of chances that built her career: from her pizza shop boss who paid for her to attend a talent camp, to saying yes to an X-Factor girl group in 2014, to backing herself as a solo artist when the group dissolved and taking a chance on a flight to LA.
She talks openly about those early years, growing up in Ballarat posting YouTube covers to escape her household. And then the moment everything cracked open: posting a cover of SWV’s Weak a year before it exploded, catching the attention of Justin Bieber, SZA, and a whole new wave of fans.
This is Larissa in full: the voice built on community, taking risks and backing herself even when nobody else knew who she was yet.
