Lanie Gardner (born July 18, 1999, in Burnsville, North Carolina) is a 27 year-old singer-songwriter and social media influencer. She began her career in 2016 as a YouTuber, when she released a video of herself covering, "Stay" by Rihanna (feat. Mikky Ekko). Over the next several years, she continued releasing cover videos, and in 2020, her cover of “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac went viral. Capitalizing on her success, DJ David Guetta selected Gardner for his rendition of “Dreams” with MORTON, a collaboration that achieved over a million Spotify streams in the first 72 hours.
