After her critically acclaimed full length album, Masquerade, the American indie/pop singer and songwriter, Lelia Broussard claimed her spot in the top two of Rolling Stone’s So You Want To Be A Rock And Roll Star contest. Hand-picked as one of the best unsigned artists in the nation by the editors of Rolling Stone and Atlantic Records, Lelia performed at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, TN on June 12th as well as LIVE on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on June 15th on 2011.

Currently living in New York, Lelia Broussard was originally born in Lafayette, Louisiana, where she was immersed in the rich and diverse music scene at a very young age. At the tender age of six, she was selected to perform Patsy Cline's "Crazy" in front of 15,000 people at the Cajun Dome. She hasn’t looked back since. She started writing her own songs, recording & independently releasing her own albums and began to amass an ever growing, devoted fan base. Over the course of her career, Broussard has collaborated with A-List producers including Rob Fusari (Lady Gaga, Whitney Houston, Destiny’s Child), Glen Ballard (Michael Jackson, Alanis Morissette, No Doubt, etc.) Espionage (Beyonce, Train, Chris Brown), Dave Trumfio (Wilco, My Morning Jacket, Built To Spill), David Hodges (Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson), Billy Mohler (Lifehouse, The Smashing Pumpkins) and most recently Chris Kuffner (Ingrid Michaelson, Guggenheim Grotto, Allison Weiss). Her songs have been featured on hit television shows such as MTV's “The Hills” , ABC Family's "The Lying Game", CBS' “Joan of Arcadia” and NBC’s “Men in Trees” as well as independent films. The past year has proved to be busy for the young singer/songwriter from Brooklyn. In the summer of 2012, Lelia was asked to be on NBC’s The Voice and went on to be picked by Grammy winning country artist, Blake Shelton. Without missing a beat, Lelia followed up the appearance with two successful European & U.S. tours. As she spent the remainder of the year writing and recording tons of unreleased music, Lelia is poised for a breakout year in 2013.

Her journey is a testament to groundbreaking talent, resilience, and unwavering passion, and she’s been repping hard ever since. As the first Asian female DJ to reach mainstream success, from spinning records on community airwaves in the 90s to headlining massive stages worldwide, she’s the OG who paved her own way and keeps raising the bar.

KSLY’s career is stacked with iconic moments. She kicked off her commercial radio career in Atlanta, co-hosting with Ludacris; setting the stage for her rise. Her voice soon became a staple on Los Angeles airwaves at The Beat. She has since shared the stage with legends like Beyoncé, Kanye West, and Will Smith. She’s also interviewed luminaries like Pharrell, Kendrick Lamar, and Jay-Z, proving she’s as much a part of the culture as the artists she celebrates.
Known for masterfully blending Hip-Hop, House, R&B, Dancehall, and Old-School into unforgettable experiences—Her signature sound has taken her from headlining 20,000+ crowds at Siloso Beach Resort in Singapore to her summer residency at Terranea Resort’s Cielo in California. Her versatility makes her the go-to choice.  

But she’s more than just a DJ. Through her initiative, Beats and Babies®, she’s fighting against child sex abuse and human trafficking, showing that her beats are as powerful as her heart.  

When KSLY’s on the decks—it’s an experience. She’s the DJ you vibe with, the artist you respect, and the kind of person who makes you believe in the power of music to bring people together.
