Bio
CyLeW is one of those hard to label, hard to classify artists, somewhere between romanticism and gothic darkness yet free from the usual cliches. Her universe is dark and somewhat intangible. Her lyrics often deal with serious and difficult subjects with a very touching decency and poetry. Human emotions being at the heart of the subjects. The expression and description of our wounds and deepest fears as well as our acts of bravery or surrender is what inspires her most. Somewhere between acoustic and electric, between gentleness and violence, between imprisonment and liberty, between good and evil, CyLeW plays with antonyms.
Several demos later, the recording of the album « Not so sleeping, not so beauty » started mid-December 2007 with Arnaud Bascunana (Deportivo, Luke, Rhesus, No one is Innocent....) who recorded, played keyboards and bass, mixed and produced the album, Tass (ex-Karma Sutra, Black Strobe, Darwin Bay) on the guitars and Nicolas Tinel on drums. Then mastered by Raphael Jonin Indochine, Rita Mitsoukos...).
On stage, CyLeW plays with Tass, Arnaud and and new drummer Kriss Kilong (ex-Madjik).
