The Summer 2018 single from Lyerr, 'Taking Over' has taken on legs of it's own as word gets out. Beautifully produced by Gavin Monaghan, It's picked up play on taste maker radio BBC Introducing Manchester, and Amazing Radio as well as very positive feedback from music fans on social networks. "Deceptively subtle, their ambitious crescendos of sound and confident punky vocal swagger give Lyerr the edge." Little Indie Blogs interview (July 2018) https://littleindieblogs.blogspot.com/2018/07/sing-tell-lyerr.html "Manchester's Lyerr have certainly proved themselves to be band to watch in 2018" The Grey Lantern (USA) interview (July 2018) https://thegreylantern.com/lyerr "The soaring, melodious vocals of frontman Ryan combined with their huge Alt Rock riffs give Lyerr a real pop" The Emergence Site preview of Blackthorn Lyerr were in the "Weekly Top Tracks" at When The Horn Blows (w/e 6th July)
'Taking Over' is out now on Rock Art Records The band followed their recent sold out headline show for the single's launch in Manchester, with Blackthorn Music Festival (Stockport) on Saturday 21st July, then a last minute show at Tramlines Music Festival (Sheffield) for Modern Age Music on Sunday 22nd July. “Lyerr were the pick of the bunch at this point from the indie scene. Very melodious in their structure and great tempo to their guitars that hooked in the audience." (Sonic Bandwagon festival review) "'Belladonna' and current single 'Taking Over' were particular highlights in a performance that has doubtlessly won them a new army of supporters." (The Emergence Site festival review) Currently working on new material, further live shows are being confirmed for Autumn.
