There's No 'Doubt' That Lianne La Havas Has A Bright Future

 

Hot on the heels of the release of not one, but two EPs last week, Londoner Lianne La Havas has premiered the video for her official first single "No Room For Doubt." The song, taken from her EP Lost & Found, is a mournful, melancholy slice of acoustic soul/folk, featuring American blues singer Willy Mason. At first I thought Mason's voice was a little jarring after hearing Lianne's delicate, floaty vocals, but as the song progresses their voices layer and intertwine perfectly. The video treatment was based around an old ghost story, with Lianne taking on the role of the one left behind and Willy as the ghost. It's simply shot, with muted, washed-out colors that suit the song's overall feel perfectly.
