LPX, the moniker of Lizzy Plapinger of MS MR, Neon Gold Records co-founder and a VEVO host, has revealed her brand new single "Slide" via Billboard here. With the release of "Slide" - a tortured love song inspired by the pulsating energy of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Le Tigre, co written with and produced by Jenny N*E*R*D (Jenn Decilveo) - LPX has announced her forthcoming debut EP, Bolt In The Blue, slated for release on January 12th, 2018. LPX will be taking the stage at the Neon Gold Holiday Pop Shop at Baby's All Right on December 12th, see more details here.
"'Slide' is equal parts passion and infatuation, anger and disbelief. It only hurts this much because it was that good, a double edged sword that keeps on digging." explains Lizzy, "On a personal note, working with Jenn was one of my first experiences ever working with a female producer and it was a uniquely different and liberating moment just being two women in the studio that is deeply meaningful to me. Jenn seamlessly pulled out all the emotional and sonic nuances of what I wanted to communicate. "
The six-track EP collection of songs - featuring "Slide", "Tightrope", and "Tremble" - was executively produced by James Flannigan. The first two tracks on the EP were mixed by Rich Costey, the remaining four, mixed by John O'Mahoney. LPX's debut solo releases have been praised by Interview Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, Billboard, Nylon, OUT Magazine, and Vogue who called her "a force to be reckoned with."
Lizzy established herself as a music force as both a co-founder of boutique record label Neon Gold (Christine and The Queens, Haim, Charli XCX, MØ, Tove Lo, Marina and the Diamonds) as well as the frontwoman of alt pop darlings MS MR. LPX finds Lizzy solo for the first time leaning into a more aggressive sound, writing music and creating a world entirely her own. In her words, "I want to create music that RIPS through your speakers and shakes you to your core, the kind of music that gets into your blood, takes hold and doesn't let go."
Following six years of non-stop touring, and two critically-loved albums under their belt, MS MR decided to take a hiatus to separately explore new musical terrain. Debuting as LPX in early 2017, Lizzy released two critically acclaimed singles, "Tremble" here and "Tightrope" here.
Shortly followed by "Better" here - a collaboration with powerhouse Aussie electronic producer, What So Not. The two debuted the song live during his headline Coachella slot that Spring, and it's gone on to top the charts at Triple J in Australia. LPX has since performed a string of sold out headline performances and support spots for heavyweights Haim and RAC across North America on separate tours.
