Miscellaneous Information


Most embarrassing moment on stage: It was at a show in Ontario, California. I talked forever about my song, "I Wanna Fall In Love," then I started singing "Saddle My Dreams." A different song, while at the same time the band played "I Wanna Fall In Love." In the middle of the song, I started all over again.
Worst feature: Her upper lip. "It disappears when I smile!" says Lila.

How she got started

Lila used to sing with her father's country band. Two weeks before her fifth birthday, Lila said that she wanted to sing a song. They decided on "You Are My Sunshine", but right before Lila was about to go sing, she panicked and hid in the bathroom. Lila's mom came to the bathroom door asking Lila to come out. After much back-and-forth arguing, Lila's mother finally asked "Lila, what do I have to do to get you to come out and sing?" Well, there just happened to be a new Barbie that Lila wanted, so she struck a deal with her mom. Her mom got her to sing, Lila got her Barbie!



Lila on her first song

Lila did not like "Down Came A Blackbird" when she first heard it. She thought the song was weird, and her friends made fun of it. It wasn't until she recorded the song that she became "attached at the hip to it."
"It's one of those songs that you either really love or really hate!" says Lila.
