Louissa is an American Alt pop/ RNB artist and songwriter hailing from Pittsburgh, PA. At a young age, Louissa was already stealing the attention of those around her dawning dance costumes as her daily attire and entertaining her family. Dance lessons, her grandmother’s apt for Doris Day songs she sang, and her mother’s piano medleys ringing throughout her home made an imprint on Louissa as a creative. She didn’t discover her singing capabilities until the age of 12 at a sleepover karaoke jam. After her newfound discovery, she begged her dad for voice lessons. She began taking lessons with a Pittsburgh Opera singer and thus began her love affair with melodies and their stories. From producing her own songs to making her own shows and appearing on a college tv show at the age of 16 she began sculpting her craft. She has been co-producing, writing, and recording songs as well writing for up-and-coming artists with a team of writers at The Playbook Music Group. Locally, she is a session vocalist for Soulhaven Studios and background singer for the group, UDIG. She has performed at venues such as Rosemont Manor, The Spark of Hope Storytelling events, the Virginia Beach Oceanfront and open mics. During the pandemic, she gathered an audience on social media through her live streams. As an artist, Louissa is inspired by the stories of the people around her, her own comeback from a debilitating illness that left her bedridden with vocal cord dysfunction, and artists such as Jojo, Beyonce, Sarah Vaughn, Glass Animals, Mariah Carey, and the feel good music she grew up on from her parents like Simon and Garfunkel. Her aim is to bring a mood and embodiment of empowerment to the audience and fill them body and spirit through her melismas and vocal intricacies.

Souled Out VB welcomes Louissa as one of the Queens of Souled Out VB!!!
