2013 marked the start of a new chapter for the multi-talented singer/songwriter Nyanda Thorbourne, known to the world as Nyanda from the chart-topping, Pop/Reggae duo Brick & Lace. Born to a Jamaican father and an American mother, both of whom are musical, she was raised on the sounds of reggae, R&B, Hip Hop and Country – which explains the trans-eclectic sound you hear reverberating from her music.
Nyanda entered the music business in the late 90s singing background vocals for Jamaican icons Marcia Grifiths, Beres Hammond and Diana King. In 2006, Brick & Lace was signed to Konvict / Universal and shortly after released their debut album, Love is Wicked. Their album spawned 4 successful singles...” Never Never”, “Get That Clear”, “Bad to di Bone” and the game changer “Love is Wicked”, which entrenched itself on 6 different European charts for over 48 weeks – its highest entry being Top 5 on France’s Top 100 Singles.
With over 100 Million YouTube Views, Brick & Lace were catapulted into the spotlight, touring North America with Akon and Gwen Stefani, followed by their own sold out tours of Europe and Africa.
In 2010, Nyanda and her sisters launched Bloodline, a prolific song writing team Published by Sony ATV. Their credits include, Gold Certified, Award Winning single “Follow The Leader” (Wisin & Yandel ft Jennifer Lopez), “All Around The World” (Christina Aguiliera) and “Say Yes” (Nicole Scherzinger to name a few.
