Shay Lia - "Good Together" (Live + Interview) | Northside Sessions

Shay Lia may not be a name you are readily familiar with, but chances are you have heard her velvety smooth voice. The Djibouti-born, Montreal-based artist has established herself in Canada's future-funk scene, from collaborating with KAYTRANADA on his debut album 99.9% to releasing her own dance-inducing debut album in 2019's Dangerous.

A force to be reckoned with and an artist sure to make you get up and groove, we had the unique pleasure to invite Lia out for a night we will not be forgetting anytime soon. Performing a magnetic rendition of "Good Together" from her debut album, Lia brought a whole different type of vibe to our Northside Sessions showcase.
