Cyrill Reiser is back with a new offering, his debut EP ‘Soul’s On Fire’. The project is built on a brooding, gritty feel, using both electric and acoustic guitar lines to convey the instrumentation, as well as driving drums to bring in rhythmic elements. It was written during Cyrill’s adventure living a nomadic lifestyle, which can really be heard throughout. It’s empowering and gets you dreaming big. The vocal performance feels a little rebellious and unquestionably confident.
On the track he says, “I wrote ‘Soul’s On Fire’ during a time when I had hit rock bottom and was feeling utterly dejected. However, in that moment of despair, I had an epiphany: I had nothing to lose and everything to gain by mustering the courage to risk really living again. The song is a powerful testament to the transformative power of that process, and how it can light a fire within one’s soul.”
Born in Zurich, Switzerland and now based in Seattle, USA. Cyrill is constantly embracing new cultures that influence him and his music, giving him fresh new perspectives with each release. The lessons of determination and perseverance he learnt during his three and a half years on the road taught him that, with a little bit of luck, anything is possible, and he can often be found growing his artistry at open mics throughout Seattle.
‘Soul’s On Fire’ is out now on streaming platforms:
