Alma is California born and New Zealand raised having moved here when she was 7. ‘I moved back over to the US to live with my Dad when I was 20 for half a year. That’s when I got my first mic and started writing and recording my originals. I’ve been writing songs since I was a little kid and took singing lessons through my schooling years. Both of my grandmas were very musical through their life so I’ve always felt a natural gravitation towards singing and writing songs. When I came back to NZ I showed a few people my songs and got connected with Auckland music producer Ricky Simmonds in 2016.’ She moved to Wellington from Auckland and at the end of 2018 began writing with producer, Nik Brinkman, `18’ being their first collaboration. They have now followed that up with their latest tracks ‘Flowers’ and 'cross my heart'. To wrap up 2020 we have seen an additional release from Alma, 'Lover Boy Blues'. 2021 we can expect to see Alma performing these songs and more, with an E.P currently being written with a release date on the horizon. Alma Leta has been featured on Apple Music’s A-List Pop, ‘Breaking Pop’ and ‘New Music Daily’ playlists for her recent releases.
