In Love with Lauv

憂鬱系創作歌手Lauv

If songs with a blend of electronic dance beats, memorable pop choruses, and emotional lyrics sound like your thing, you’ll love the songs of Lauv. The 25-year-old San Francisco native, whose real name is Ari Leff, first found fame in 2015, but he’s been writing music for years.

Lauv was interested in music from a young age and started learning the guitar at 11. Shortly after, he decided to try his hand at composing his own music. He wrote constantly about relationships and breakups, baring his soul in deeply personal songs. The irony, of course, is that up till then he himself had never been in a relationship!

The young American went on to study music technology at NYU, figuring he’d do his best work behind the scenes. While writing and producing songs for other artists, he came across an interview with the musician Paul Simon. In it, Simon said that his approach to writing songs was a process of uncovering his deepest feelings. From then on, Lauv decided he would use music to explore his personal identity. He adopted the name Lauv, from the Latvian word for “lion,” as a nod to both his mother’s background and his zodiac sign, Leo.

如果歌曲融合電子舞曲節拍、令人難忘的流行樂副歌和充滿感情的歌詞聽起來像是你喜歡的東西,你就會喜歡Lauv的歌。這名二十五歲的舊金山人本名是Ari Leff,他在二○一五年開始成名,但他已經創作音樂好多年了。

Lauv從小就對音樂感興趣,並於十一歲開始學吉他。不久之後,他決定嘗試創作自己的音樂。他經常寫關於感情和分手的歌曲,透過個人歌曲傾訴衷腸。當然,諷刺的是直到那時,他自己從來沒有談過戀愛!

這名美國年輕人接著到紐約大學學習音樂科技,認為從事幕後工作會表現得最好。在替其他藝人作詞作曲時,他無意間看到音樂人保羅.賽門的訪談。在訪談中,賽門表示他寫歌的方法就是揭露他最深刻感受的過程。從那之後,Lauv決定用音樂來探索個人認同。他取了Lauv這個名字(源自拉托維亞語的「獅子」)來向母親的出身背景和他的星座獅子座致敬。


In 2015, Lauv released his first song “The Other” online. To his surprise, it went viral. Since then, he has signed a record deal, released his debut album, How I’m Feeling, had success on the Billboard charts, and gone on a world tour. It has been a wild ride, but Lauv isn’t stopping yet. He has teamed up with both Troye Sivan on “i’m so tired” and K-pop sensation BTS on “Who.”

Lauv is committed to staying true to himself, which means being honest about his struggles with depression and anxiety. He often writes about his emotional state in his songs, but it has also prevented him from writing music at times. That’s why it was important to Lauv to open up about it both in his music and by working with charities to remove the stigma about mental health issues. He hopes that by telling the truth, people will see that this condition isn’t unusual, and other sufferers will feel less alone.

With catchy songs that you can identify with, it’s easy to see why Lauv has become such a star. Indeed, there’s a lot to love about Lauv.

二○一五年Lauv在網路上發表他的首支單曲〈The Other〉。令他意外的是,這首歌爆紅了。在那之後,他和一間唱片公司簽約、發行首張大碟《How I’m Feeling》、在美國《告示牌》排行榜取得成功,並進行了世界巡演。這是一趟刺激的旅程,但Lauv還沒有要停下腳步。他和特洛伊.希文合作單曲〈i’m so tired〉,也和名聲大噪的韓國流行音樂天團防彈少年團合作歌曲〈Who〉。

Lauv承諾要真實的做自己,這表示對自己與憂鬱症和焦慮症的奮鬥過程要誠實以對。他經常在歌曲中書寫他的情緒狀態,但有時這也會阻礙他寫歌。那就是為什麼對Lauv來說,要消除這個心理健康問題的汙名,在音樂中以及與慈善機構的合作中能暢所欲言很重要。他希望透過說實話,人們會知道這個健康問題並不罕見,而其他受苦的人也不會感到那麼孤單。

有了讓你產生共鳴的琅琅上口的歌曲,你很容易就能明白為什麼Lauv會成為這樣的一位明星。的確,Lauv有很多值得喜愛的地方。
