Lianne La Havas - "Don't Wake Me Up" [Official Video]

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Lianne La Havas presents the dark and sultry video for "Don't Wake Me Up" - the beautifully crafted opening track from her critically acclaimed 2012 debut LP Is Your Love Big Enough? - presented by Hunger TV. Lianne delivers a perfect vocal performance awash in deep purple; the layered tracks creating a harmony that melds with a prominent bassline and pretty colors to create a compelling visual. The dark dreamy footage is broken up by bright bursts of yellow La Havas against a yellow backdrop, looking much sweeter and decidedly less disturbed on the outside than she is deep down inside. This video arrives as she wraps a North American tour, following the success of the LP. Lianne La Havas' tour will be heading back to Europe this month. Catch her live out on the road. Check the video for "Don't Wake Me Up" below. Purchase Lianne La Havas' debut LP Is Your Love Big Enough via iTunes.
