British singer-songwriter Kyan offers a contemporary perspective on a classic sound. Kyan's brand of 'Dark Soul' is characterised by his raw vocals, cinematic production and his powerfully intoxicating lyric-driven compositions.
Discovering his love Roberta Flack and Stevie Wonder at the age of thirteen, Kyan realized that - like his iconic influences - music was more than just his passion; it was ingrained deep within him.
A self-made musician, Kyan practically breathes his craft, and nowhere else is this more apparent than on stage. With just his voice and a piano, he performs with an entrancing essence that tells his story with each note. Live or recorded, Kyan's music yields a mainstream appeal while existing far from the conventional. Through poetic lyrics and evocative soundscapes, Kyan embodies an acute sense of self-awareness that willingly exposes his vulnerability.
On his 2014 debut EP, The Purple Experiment, Kyan made his creative capabilities known. The EP, revered as a bold introduction for an emerging artist, garnered the attention of audiences and contemporary acts alike. Subsequently, Kyan found himself touring the UK with British trio London Grammar, sharing a stage with producer and DJ Duke Dumont at England's Wembley Stadium and rolling out his second EP, Days in a Triangle.
Kyan would only further his multifaceted catalog with his third EP, 2015's Remote View, and a featured spot on "You're On," the single off French nu-disco/dubstep producer Madeon's album, Adventure. Both his EP and feature showcased Kyan's creative range that encompassed everything from empowering anthems to stripped-back ballads.
In just three EPs, Kyan has established the arresting territory in which his work is rooted. In music's vast and oftentimes complicated landscape, Kyan reminds us that nothing is more poignant than an authentic story and a powerful voice that knows how to tell it.
