Biita / Teshua Parker

Biita (formerly LéPonds) is the solo project of Los Angeles–based singer-songwriter Lisa Houdei, whose experimental folk songs are haunting, angelic, and whimsical, echoing the spirit of Vashti Bunyan and Norma Tanega. With four albums released, her music ranges from delicate folk to unexpected sonic treasures, always rooted in the human experience. She has opened for Jeff Tweedy, Natalie Prass, and Black Belt Eagle Scout, and recently toured in support of Haley Heynderickx, who co-produced her upcoming album under her new name, Biita. She traveled far and wide by ferry, horse, and train to find it.
