Newcomer to the pop scene, Carlyn joins the likes of Billie Eilish and Madison Beer in creating a dark indie-dream style pop she’s coined ‘nightmare pop.’ With her music’s dark melodic undertones and moody lyricism, this name fits best but don’t expect a specific status quo from her music. With her unique ability to adapt, a unique fashion sense (think Tyler the Creator x Miley Cyrus) and innate musicality, Carlyn is the artist to look out for.
Carlyn’s latest single, “Try To Get Away,” produced by Tim Buron, demonstrates a maturity which is rarely found in an artist who has yet to release a debut album.
I wrote this song about uncontrollable desire. It’s about two people who know that they shouldn’t be together, but they just can’t seem to stay away from each other. It just goes to say, you can’t control what the heart wants. The song itself sounds bright and playful while the lyrics play with themes of hypnosis and hauntings, becoming another product of nightmare pop.
