Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ DYLYN Premieres New Song “Secret” on SoundCloud
Toronto-based singer-songwriter Gwendolyn Lewis, aka DYLYN has released a new song "Secret". The song was premiered on exclusively on Popdust.
The track is taken from her upcoming debut album produced by Colin Munroe.
Gwendolyn Lewis debuted as Guinevere at 19. She released some songs such as "Ran for My Life", "Fly Away" and "Crazy Crazy".
At that time, her music is hard-pop. But she decided to change her music direction when she met Colin Munroe in LA.
In 2016, she started as DYLYN a new music project, released her debut song "Mimosa" in February 2017.
Her debut album is expected to be released later this year.
About the song she told Popdust in the interview;
"My life was turned upside down and as a result this song emerged. 'Secret' became therapeutic, it helped me deal with this crazy thing that happens to so many people, yet often remains a taboo subject; especially in song. 'Secret' gave me a chance to connect with people, with my fans whose parents also split up due to infidelity; it became a way of reaffirming for myself and others 'You are not the only one going through this.'"-
- She said about the debut album;
"When I started the album, I decided to go back to what music I really liked when I was younger. Then, I started looking at pictures of what spoke to me and decided to completely strip it down. If you were here hanging out with me, I'm wearing a Rolling Stones t-shirt and ripped jeans. I'm not wearing makeup and my hair is bleached out a little crazy. This is truly me. I'm not so flashy. I said 'why not apply that to my music now? Doesn't that make sense, just to be yourself?' Sometimes, the answer is so simple, but it takes a long time to realize that."
