Lhamo's Australian debut album, "Tibetan Prayer", produced by John Prior, won the ARIA Music Awards for best folk/world/traditional music release in 1995. The success of that record led to her signing with Peter Gabriel's Real World label. Her first record for the label, "Tibet, Tibet", mainly features "a cappella" renditions of original compositions—authentic Tibetan Buddhist prayers and songs. Her next recording, "Coming Home", was a collaboration with producer Hector Zazou, showcasing her voice and also featuring chanting by Tibetan monks, a wide range of mostly modern Western instruments and the benefits of multi-track recording which enabled Lhamo's voice to be layered repeatedly.
