News

Mona Lissa Chanda is a Montreal-based singer-songwriter who blends the sophistication of timeless classics with the allure of catchy pop hooks. She is inspired by the likes of Amy Winehouse, Tracy Chapman, Melody Gardot, Sade, and Lake Street Dive. Drawing from her own life experience, Mona Lissa writes torch songs about self-discovery and the longing for love and connection. While she often explores the dark side of human nature, her songs are imbued with wit, charm, and a nostalgic feel. Ultimately, she loves life with all its imperfections and embraces the opportunity to witness reality as a modern woman.
Mona Lissa's latest song and video, 'Professional Victim', is a celebration of healthy boundary-setting with a catchy Motown groove. It is the lead single from her first full-length album, Queen Of Games, scheduled for a spring release. 'Professional Victim' is not a song for the faint at heart, but rather it is for those with a big heart who give selflessly to others. While that's a great quality to have, it is important to realize when you have given too much for too long, to the wrong kinds of people. This song is a friendly reminder to start putting your own needs first.
