Toronto-born, LA-based indie pop songstress LYON has announced the release of her new EP Falling Up, out September 16 via Black Box. A follow up to her 2013 EP and single "Indian Summer" which hit #1 on M3's Top-20 and #3 on CBC Radio 3's Top 30, as well as a feature on Wolf Saga's cover of The Strokes "You Only Live Once" which hit #1 on Hype Machine twice, Falling Up blends the familiar LYON sound with a newfound sense of edge and adventure.
Songs like "Gold Dust" display LYON's undeniable pop sensibilities, danceable beats and infectious synth melodies while moodier tracks like "Silverlight" display a diverse and dynamic range of instrumentation, energy and emotion. Watch a blank canvas become a vivid dreamscape in the video for lead single "bodytalk" released today.
Shortly after a serious crash spun her car out on the black ice of Toronto, LYON, the musical moniker of Lauren Malyon, caught a redeye for her first writing trip to Los Angeles. In the sunshine and palm trees she found musical solace-a beautiful creative place that allowed her to remain blissfully unaware of the totaled car and struggles with a past relationship she had left behind. This seven-song body of work includes collaborations with Lisa Scinta, Joey Resly, FANN and xSDTRK. Stay tuned for more on LYON coming soon! Falling Up Tracklist:Videos
