In her twenties, Wall Street lawyer Roxana Labatt learned that she had a blood clot that could at any moment move to her heart, brain, or lungs and kill her instantly. The experience, from which she has fully recovered, brought about drastic change in her life. She left behind the path of safety that practicing law had offered, allowing herself instead to pursue a latent passion for music — a passion that first shone through when she was only three years old, standing on her parents' piano bench and belting out “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” to anyone who would listen. Roxana now spends her time writing and performing lyric-driven indie pop ballads. Roxana’s lyrics have been described as viscerally emotive, stirring, and irreverent. The themes of Roxana’s songs, many of which deal with complex relationships, are broadly relatable.
After releasing her first single in 2020, Roxana traveled around Texas performing original power pop songs including “On the Ground” and "In My Nightmares." Roxana then turned her focus to developing a new body of work. The new project, which debuts Summer 2024, will introduce numerous never-before-released original indie pop and indie rock songs such as "Lonely," "Playing the Part," and “Fall to Pieces.” Roxana is very excited to share these songs soon.
