Nilusi is a French-Sri Lankan artist who weaves powerful stories through music and visuals, anchored in identity, love, and resilience.
A recognized songwriter, she has collaborated with major artists such as Ayra Starr, Yseult, Anitta, Banks, and Pabllo Vittar, and co-wrote the global hit song Alibi.
Her debut solo album, Lettre à l’Univers, offers an organic fusion of soul, R&B, jazz, pop, and traditional South Asian music. Entirely self-produced, the album addresses themes of healing, grounding, and identity reconstruction. The single Tereketena, an ode to her cultural roots, was recently highlighted by Timbaland.
A multifaceted artist, she is currently writing, directing, producing, and starring in her first feature film NARA, shot in Sri Lanka. She also features in an issue of Vogue India, alongside other South Asian artists who are redefining the future of sound.
Through her ability to bring music, cinema, and storytelling into dialogue with rare authenticity, Nilusi establishes herself as a singular voice of her generation, to be followed very closely.
