Early life and background

Lisa Mishra was born in Berhampur, Orissa, in 1994 and spent part of her childhood moving with her family to London at the age of six. Her father is Salil K Mishra, a former employee of the State Bank of India. She grew up in a household where music was present from an early age — she began learning music at home when she was four and picked up the guitar at fifteen. She later pursued higher education and is associated with The Pluralism Project at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Her formal academic studies included graduation in economics and religion.

Career

Mishra launched her online presence by creating a YouTube channel in 2007. Initially cautious about posting videos, she shared audio-only uploads before moving to webcam and mobile-camera recordings. In 2013 she uploaded a cover of Kabira from Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, one of her early public performances online.

Her career includes collaborations across genres and borders. She contributed vocals to the 2016 Grammy Award-winning album Coloring Book and worked with artists such as Jamila Woods on the theme for the web series Brown Girls, as well as collaborations with DJ Khaled and Big Sean.

Mishra's profile grew in India after a 2018 Instagram clip in which she sang a mashup of Tareefan and Let Me Love You attracted attention from Sonam and Rhea Kapoor. That exposure led to an invitation to Mumbai and to her singing the reprise version of Tareefan for the film Veere Di Wedding, a performance that brought her wider recognition in Bollywood.

Following that breakthrough, she recorded multiple songs for 2019, including Koi Nahi, The Wakhra Song from Judgemental Hai Kya, and Chandigarh Mein from Good Newwz. Her work spans studio recordings, live performances, and fashion appearances; she has performed at various events and walked the ramp at Lakme Fashion Week.

Public profile

Mishra maintains a public image that blends independent-musician roots with mainstream playback singing. She has been featured in magazines and made television appearances, including a 2019 appearance on The Kapil Sharma Show alongside fellow music and film personalities. Her musical tastes and influences include contemporary pop and R&B artists; she has named singers such as Arijit Singh, Sunidhi Chauhan, Charlie Puth, Dua Lipa, Beyoncé and Katy Perry among those she admires.

Personal notes

As of 2019 she was reported to be 25 years old. She is Indian by nationality and lists Berhampur, Orissa as her hometown. Lisa practices a non-vegetarian diet, enjoys listening to music, travelling and spending time with friends, and has a tattoo on her right arm. Her family includes her mother (name not provided) and a sister, Lorry Mishra, who is a food blogger.

Latest updates

Highlights from recent years include her vocal contributions to mainstream Bollywood soundtracks in 2018 and 2019, continued live performances, and collaborations with both Indian and international artists. Her 2018 Instagram video remains a noted turning point in bringing her music to a larger audience and leading to professional opportunities in Mumbai.
