Wyvern Lingo are a three-piece from County Wicklow, Ireland. 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. Drawing on a diverse range of influences from pop, rock and RnB, their voices interweave to create a fresh, forward-looking sound.

Today they’re sharing the video for new single ‘Letter To Willow’. It premiered on Clash, but you can also watch it below.

Stream the track on SoundCloud here.

Led by singer/drummer Caoimhe, this new single ‘Letter To Willow‘ sees the trio really upping the ante. Superlative harmonies, passionate vocal performances, an unforgettable chorus, all brought together in seamless fashion – arguably comparable to the likes of fellow girl trios Stealing Sheep and Haim, with a hint of Fickle Friends-esque indie pop thrown in for good measure.

The trio are on tour in the UK in January and February as special guests of Hozier on his sold-out string of dates, which include three nights at Brixton Academy. Karen and Caoimhe were members of Hozier’s touring band back in 2014, and Karen also duets with Hozier on the haunting ‘In A Week’ on his multi-platinum debut album.

Wyvern Lingo’s debut release, via Irish label Rubyworks is a four-track EP called ‘Letter To Willow’. Three of the tracks were recorded in Cologne, Germany with Sierra-Leonean / German artist-producer Patrice Bart-Williams, and were mixed in Paris by Philippe Weiss (Dragonette, George Clinton, K’naan).

Karen Cowley: vocals, keyboards, bass synth
