Slightly Mad – Larissa Tormey

Larissa Tormey – a native of Central Russian – wrote her first song at the age of four and later completed a formal academic degree in Choir Conducting, Singing and Piano in order to become a professional musician. Larissa made her break onto the music scene in Ireland when she released her first album ‘Perfect As I Am’, following the tragic passing of her mother in 2014. She commenced a social media campaign to build her reputation and many of her followers suggested that she should branch into country music. “I started to think that country music would suit me because I am so involved in the rural community; I mix with country people and I love country life.” Larissa released on her second album – ‘God Loves A Trier’ in 2017 followed by third in 2018 “Cowgirld Don’t cry”. This milestone came just weeks after she became the inaugural winner of the Best Cultural Crossover Country Artist of the Year Award at the Sunday World Music and Entertainment Awards in Ireland. She was featured in two most popular TV Shows in Ireland: Nationwide and Late Late Show and many more. She is now working on her fourth country album due to be released in September 2020 and has already released numerous singles in 2019. Most of them reached top chart positions in Ireland and abroad. This successful journey has made her feel accepted into Irish society despite her Russian roots. While in lock down Larissa decided to return to her contemporary pop songwriting and to work on a new original album. 5th of May she released her version of Covid-19 song- “Live Another Day” – first song of her new project and reveals the songwriter’s very personal response to health scares and the meaning of life. This song was included in Top 30 best releases in Netherlands last week and climbing the charts in other EU countries at the moment. Larissa also established herself as a video blogger . Over the year ago she created a very successful show on her social media “My Music And My Story” where she is interviewing independent musicians and helping them to promote their music. Larissa has shown that no stage is too big for her talent. But Larissa is about more than just her talent, as anyone who has enjoyed time in her company will testify. Her positivity and energy, perfectly complimented by a sense of style and elegance, make Larissa a natural entertainer, on stage and off.
