Irish pop powerhouse Lyra is back, and she's not just releasing new music – she's throwing open the doors to the 'Weird Club' with her latest single, out now. Co-written with the impressive talents of Grammy-nominated songwriter Anna Krantz, known for her work with artists like Ed Sheeran and Geri Halliwell, 'Weird Club' isn't just a track; it's a vibrant, shimmering invitation to embrace what makes you different.
Following a spectacular 2024 that saw her debut album, 'LYRA', soar to the No.1 spot and her tour sell out across Ireland, 'Weird Club' marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the artist. The single pulses with an infectious energy, driven by dazzling synths and Lyra's unmistakable, commanding vocals. It's a sonic embrace for anyone who's ever felt like an outsider, a dream-chaser, or simply an original.
Lyra herself encapsulates the spirit of the track perfectly: "She, he, they, them - whatever your category, you’re one of us," she states. "And in my world, that means you’re iconic." This declaration isn't just a catchy line; it's a testament to her ongoing commitment to championing authenticity and celebrating diversity. Lyra has consistently used her platform as a proud ally and fearless advocate for inclusion, and "Weird Club" reinforces this message with a powerful, pop-infused punch.
Beyond her musical prowess, Lyra's adventurous spirit shone earlier this year when she joined former Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and special forces veteran Ray Goggins on the travel series 'Uncharted'. Filmed amidst the breathtaking Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa, the show offered viewers a glimpse into a new side of Lyra, as she bravely confronted both physical and emotional challenges in one of the world's most rugged landscapes.
'Weird Club' isn't just a banger for your playlist; it's a statement. Lyra expertly weaves together impactful pop with a message that resonates deeply, highlighting the inherent beauty in every identity and the undeniable strength that comes from proudly being yourself.
