Laila Samuels (formerly of The Tuesdays)

Americans will remember our guest, Laila Samuels, from her band The Tuesdays. Signed by Clive Davis, Laila's group released their Arista Records debut in 1998. Though the album was great, the follow up never saw the light of day. Since that time, this Norwegian songwriter has written hundreds of songs for other artists, and continues to release her own music to this day. We discuss her musical history, touring with N'SYNC and Mariah Carey, appearing on MTV, and performing in the Eurovision contest. This month, Laila released "The Lost Demos" album. These tracks were recorded many years ago, and we're so glad she decided to put them out because they are GREAT! We discuss all of this and more!
 
Be sure to follow Laila on Facebook, and on Instagram @LailaSamuels. Stream all of her music on Spotify.
