BIO:

IN 2022 THEY SHARED THE STAGE WITH THE LIKES OF "SCOUTING FOR GIRLS", "BLUE" AND "SOPHIE ELLIS BEXTOR" THEY HAVE GAINED TRACTION FROM RADIO STATIONS INCLUDING BBC INTRODUCING, AWARDED TRACK OF THE WEEK FOR "S.T.A.Y" AND THEIR PENULTIMATE RELEASE "ALL THE SAME". LYRA ARE SET TO PERFORM A RUN OF DATES AROUND THE COUNTRY WITH "FOODIES FESTIVAL" AND MORE THIS SUMMER.
LATEST RELEASE:
THEME OF LIVING IN THE MOMENT AND SHINES A LIGHT ON THE REBELLIOUS NATURE OF HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY.
IT SHOWCASES THE FEELING THAT EVERYBODY GETS WHEN THE DEVIL ON ONE SHOULDER OVERPOWERS THE ANGEL ON THE OTHER. "I SLEPT WITH MY DEMONS, THEY NEVER CALLED ME BACK. MADE LOVE WITH MY EGO, IT WASN'T MADE TO LAST", IMPLYING THAT SOME THINGS ARE FUN TO DO IN THE MOMENT, DESPITE WHAT REPERCUSSIONS THERE MIGHT BE.
THE INTRO OF THE SONG HAS AN ELECTRONIC FEEL WITH MELLOW SYNTHS SUPPORTING A BRIGHT POP VOCAL THAT TEASES A FOUR-TO THE-FLOOR DANCE TRACK. THIS QUICKLY EVOLVES INTO A GUITAR HEAVY POP SONG WITH AN ANTHEMIC CHORUS.
