Yuna Zarai is what you call a triple threat. She's a fashion designer, a lawyer and a talented musician. 

Fallen

Yuna was born and raised in Malaysia but recently moved to downtown Los Angeles, where she's been writing music to appeal to an American audience. While she's big in Malaysia, she came to the U.S. to try and break through to the market here.

She takes to the stage on July 9th at the Hollywood Bowl as part of an Ella Fitzgerald tribute concert titled "To Ella with Love." But recently she joined Alex Cohen in studio to talk about moving to LA, the beginning of her career and channeling her heartbreak through music.
