SOPHIE LILAH Releases Stunning Debut EP 'Fear/Instinct'
Debut EP Out Friday, August 16
From Perth/Boorloo, a mysterious artist has emerged from the mist: young musician Sophie Lilah wielding her ethereal debut EP ‘Fear/Instinct’, which is out today (August 16). This EP contains songs pulled straight from the diary of the elusive adolescent that weaves together into something beautiful.
At just 18, Sophie Lilah is already showing herself as someone to keep an eye on. It’s no shock that her dreamy tracks and unique, decadent compositions have garnered attention from Apple Music, Triple J, Triple J Unearthed, Music Feeds, Scenestr and more. This EP ties together what makes her music iconic by showcasing her incredible vocal range, acoustic guitar riffs, and sweet synth mixing.
This EP is made up of 5 moody indie songs. The album begins with ‘Real’, a grounded, passion-packed ballad that demonstrates Sophie’s impressive vocal range, with understated, steady drums and acoustic guitar perfectly complementing Sophie Lilah’s voice.
This is followed by her recently released lead single ‘Content but I find’, a light, tragically whimsical song that’s slow and nostalgic - almost a lullaby.
‘Dreamland’ comes next, switching up the mood a little. This is a groovy, flowy jam with an addictive bass riff and hallucinogenic vocals, an air of mystery reminiscent of a spy movie. Following that, ‘Collecting Dust’ is a low and melancholic dwell on depression, decadent and earthy with a dramatic build-up, complete with edgy, subversive guitar.
The finale of the EP is ‘Sinking’. Its grounded, acoustic beginning floats up and around with Sophie’s dreamy vocals, blending layers and ethereal sounds with gentle acoustic as the song expands.
Sophie Lilah explains that these songs were written in her final two years of high school, and though she can no longer relate to them, she’s releasing them in the hopes that they’ll come to those who need them.
Letting her songs go from her care and into the wild, Sophie Lilah's debut EP 'Fear/Instinct’ is out now.
