Early life

LeMac hails from Vancouver, Canada. She recounts growing up with a very musical family: "No one was playing any instruments, but we were vocally, very musical at the same time, I was always surrounded by it." She also sang outside her mother's store, trying to attract new customers to come in. LeMac started writing her own songs by the time she was in middle school.

At age 14, LeMac provided vocals for multiple dance singles produced by the electronic label Monstercat.

LeMac is self-taught on both piano and guitar.

Career

LeMac released her debut single "Constellations" in August of 2021, which went viral on Spotify, accumulating over 1 million streams within the first month.

In 2023, LeMac signed with Arista Records. She also released her first EP, Constellations, named after her first single. Xtra Magazine called the album the "perfect introduction to this young singer-songwriter whose creations feel authentic and not bound by trend or genre". LeMac released her second album, Confessions, in late 2023. "Car Accident", a single off the album, has been called a "testament to the artist's creative skill".

LeMac openly posts about being part the LGBTQ+ community, citing her own popularity on TikTok.
