Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Pāhauwera, Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Te Atiawa, Ngāi Tūhoe and Kai Tahu. Also Irish, German and Spanish descent.

Larissa Huata-Lucas aka 'Lissy' is an aspiring new RnB Soul artist born and raised from the pinnacle of Kohupātiki, in the sunny Hawkes bay.

Being immersed in te ao Māori and connected to her ūkaipō, Lissy always acknowledges her whānau and friends who helped her pursue a career in music.

Lissy flows through life, creating tunes and compositions largely in the RnB genre, bringing an authentic, soulful taste to the music scene.

Her first single, 'Wonder' (Mīharo) debuted in September 2021. She later released her first album 'Pieces to My Puzzle', in December 2021 and current compositions can be found on her various platforms below.

Lissy hopes her sound resonates with anyone who may need a ‘pick me up’ on gloomy days, a ‘keep keepin on’ during trialing times and a ‘reminder’ that one lives in the paradise of their own creation.

Grounded and grateful for the blessings which she views as being abundant, Lissy is a staunch believer that there is plenty of room for all to flourish.
