Recently signed to leading Irish independent label Rubyworks, Wyvern Lingo are set to release their next EP this Autumn. Friends and bandmates since school days, Wyvern Lingo share a gift for close harmony, keen songcraft and effervescent live performance which belies their tender years. Taking influences from pop, folk and R’n’B, their voices interweave to create a fresh sound which is forward-looking yet unafraid to celebrate tradition. Wyvern Lingo released their debut EP in Ireland in 2014, and the band toured with Hozier in the UK and at home; Karen and Caoimhe both putting in a double shift by singing backing vocals for their Wicklow friend. Karen also duets with Hozier on the haunting ‘In A Week’ on his bestselling debut album. Wyvern Lingo now take centre stage on their own terms. Their hugely received debut release – The Widow Knows EP – showcased their keen ear for melody and quick turn of phrase and brings together a myriad of influences in complete harmony. “Bray trio Karen Cowley, Saoirse Duane and Caoimhe Barry have been gaining plenty of props for their lush harmonies and striking melodic pop”Jim Carroll, The Irish Times “These girls have melody and delivery nailed. The real deal”Aoife Woodlock, RTE Other Voices Golden Plec Review of EP Launch party: – Read here Golden Plec Review: – Read here Rob Moro Review: – Read here The Last Mixed Tape Review: – Read here Dublin Concerts Review: – Read here
