Lhasa de Sela (September 27, 1972 – January 1, 2010), also known by the monomym Lhasa, was an American-Canadian singer-songwriter who was raised in Mexico and the United States and divided her adult life between Canada and France. Her first album,La Llorona, went Platinum in Canada and brought Lhasa a Félix Award and a Juno Award
Following this success, Lhasa toured with Lilith Fair and then joined her sisters in a French circus troupe, contributing her husky voice to the musical backdrop. She lived in Marseille and began to write more songs, then she moved back to Montreal and produced a second album, The Living Road. Once again, she toured in support of her album and collaborated with other musicians on their projects. During this time, BBC Radio 3 honoured her as the best world music artist of the Americas in 2005. She published a book about her impressions of life on the road.
The Living Road sold 50k+ units in Canada (Gold album).
