Fiercely independent, making a name for herself supporting artists with cemented rising star status, The Snuts, Sundara Karma and Circa Waves included in this bunch, Stoke-on-Trent’s Lissy Taylor is bringing an effortless new female empowerment to the alt-rock scene.
Championed by Manchester City FC as their 2024 Battle of the Bands winner, garnering tastemaker support across music press, national radio and Spotify editorials, Lissy’s most recent moment in the spotlight came with a sold-out Manchester headliner and has a summer of festival appearances ahead of her.
Drenched in tenacity, Lissy’s latest single is an absolute anthem. ‘Your Girl’ balances an enticing lead vocal with raw instrumentation and fierce performances walking a line of gliding melodies and organic authenticity.
The elements of flirtatiousness are firmly balanced with self-assurance, Lissy sharing, “I wrote it after a breakup thinking yes I could be your girl but I can be anything. I really wanted to capture the confidence and empowerment in being single.”
This dynamic energy between uplifting and provocative morphs the track into an invigorating experience, the infectiousness calling out for new challenges and confrontation but remaining gloriously feminine.
