Kyla La Grange has a startling voice and the ability to write songs that convey, in their own torrid, tumultuous way, the unpredictability of the human heart. They are songs that capture what it is like to be young and in (and out of) love, delivered through music that ranges from folkily intimate to gloriously loud and intense.  

"Some of my songs are sad and introverted," she explains, "but others need big driving drums and shouting".

On her debut album, Ashes (ioki records/Sony), Kyla sings about serious matters, of lives lived and secrets hidden, using keen melody to make it all seem so easy on the ear. She sings in a way that is uniquely her, in a voice that veers between huskily low and high, but always conveys emotion.

5 star current tour review

Deafen the Creatures
Formed in February 2011, Manchester-based Deafen The Creatures are an acoustic electronic band. They effortlessly combine the traditional nuances of delicate male/female vocals, acoustic guitars and piano with the modern approach of ambient synths and driving electronic beats to create vast intertwining soundscapes.

 "Deafen The Creatures: like an early Elbow mixed with Matchbox 20 via Fleetwood Mac. Is nice!"  -Band Royale 2011
