LYVIA DROPS SOULFUL CONFESSION ‘LITTLE WHITE LIE’
Nottingham’s rising soul-pop provocateur LYVIA returns with her new single Little White Lie — a shimmering, rhythmic track about stumbling into an unexpected truth. Mixing glistening arpeggios, nostalgic early-2000s basslines and bold bursts of instrumentation, the 24-year-old layers staccato vocals with effortless runs, transforming raw reflection into an earworm chorus.
Inspired by a deeply personal moment — “a story about kissing a girl while I had a boyfriend” — LYVIA calls the song a hard but necessary confession. “I wasn’t honest about what I was feeling, or about my sexuality. This was my way of saying what I couldn’t at the time.”
Little White Lie follows her Running Late EP and marks the start of Be Right There, part two of a mixtape set to solidify her place as one of the UK’s most compelling new voices. With viral hits like Trippin’ (10 million Spotify streams) already under her belt, LYVIA is gearing up for a UK tour including Nottingham’s Rescue Rooms and London’s The Garage.
