Her mother is from Saint Kitts and her father is from Jamaica.

That song has a special memory for me in my emotional canon - I was playing that at 4am when I submitted my first novel in toto to my agent. It was the fourth draft. The fifth was written with publisher's editor.

Wasn't the Laura Mvula album put up for this year's Mercury music award "The Dreaming Room'?
