Acknowledging the enduring charm of this classic piece, which has captivated listeners for generations, Meta collaborates once more with producer Bob McGilpin and co-producer Gene Rabbai. Together, they reinterpret the song, infusing it with Lyia’s unique style and personal experiences.

“Meta has something which few singers possess, and that is complete control of her powerful voice,” said an international editor, author, and Jazz Journalist, Sammy Stein.

This single builds on the success of her earlier work with McGilpin and Rabbai on the album ‘Always You‘ and ‘15013‘, offering a delightful jazz-pop twist that respects the past while offering a new take that feels both familiar and refreshing.

“Lyia Meta’s talent and artistic pedigree means she moves seamlessly between genres. All of which adds up to a gloriously free expression of her creativity (…),” said FAULT Magazine.

A multi-award winner with an extremely rare contralto vocal range and a voice that straddles both blues and classical music, her deep, resonant vocals conjure the likes of blues pop greats Nina Simone and Amy Winehouse. Lyia has been recognized in a wide range of genres throughout her long music career but the obvious standout pairing has been in blues and jazz. Meta’s work has been featured in Rolling Stone Magazine IN, Billboard Magazine, FAULT Magazine, and more.

With a musical background that reaches all the way back to childhood, Lyia’s voice has always stood out but it’s not just her range that’s unique. She blends smooth and sultry jazz tones with well-trained operatic techniques to create a signature style that’s well-loved on both sides of the Pacific: her home bases of L.A. and Malaysia.

In spite of being a global artist originating out of a small Southeast Asian nation, Lyia has every year stepped up her game to overcome the geographic and cultural hurdles that she has faced as her musical career has exploded. Lyia has reached acclaim in the rest of the world, and especially in the United States, by sliding through a multitude of genres and styles, collaborating with producers and songwriters, earning an extensive list of awards (such as her ‘Best Album’ and ‘Best Female Vocalist’ wins at the 2022 & 2023 Global Music Awards, and her ‘Performance of the Year’, ‘Entertainer of the Year’, ‘Female Vocalist of the Year’, Win at the 2022 and 2023 Texas Sounds International Country Music Awards, World Entertainment Awards 2024 for Best Jazz Artist), accolades and recognition along the way.

Speaking about the project, Meta expressed, “Reimagining “All My Loving” was approached with great respect for the timeless music of The Beatles. Collaborating with my producer Bob McGilpin and co-producer Gene Rabbai, our rendition of this iconic song is a heartfelt expression and a sincere appreciation for the enduring legacy of The Beatles!.”
