Listen Later

LAIVY is a 16-year-old emerging artist from New York City. He is the son of Grammy®-nominated singer/songwriter/rapper Matisyahu (modestyahoo) and spent his early years between Crown Heights Brooklyn, Los Angeles, and living on a tour bus. Surrounded by music and musicians, it was just a matter of time before he discovered his voice and started building his own music with GarageBand. His purpose in life became channeling his experiences and feelings into songs. In Los Angeles, he has recorded his first songs for release with producer Aidan Laprete (lapret) (The Wilds) and mixed by Elijah Marrett-Hitch (Justin Bieber, The Kid LAROI). He is going on a U.S. national tour to over 50 markets opening for Matisyahu this Summer and Fall. He is inspired by soulful artists who are relatable in their lyrics and sound, and hopes to follow in their footsteps who can summon the common chord of a generation and unite them through song.
