ALA.NI is a British singer, songwriter and musician with a timeless voice. Her short, almost bare songs blend minimalist folk, vintage soul and an effortless pop elegance.
Born in London to Grenadian parents, she began her career as a ballet dancer and backing vocalist for artists including Mary J. Blige and Blur, before turning to music and following in the footsteps of her great-uncle Leslie Hutchinson, a major music-hall star of the 1930s.
Following Sunshine Music in 2025, ALA.NI returns on October 9 with Proud of Me, a deeply personal album made in collaboration with Emmy Award-winning composer and producer Adrian Younge. Nearly a decade in the making, the album explores love, desire, grief and self-discovery against the backdrop of Los Angeles.
