Who is Lily Ashes?
As a vocal artist, Lily Ashes, is the embodiment of this dichotomy. Her voice can be a soaring, ethereal whisper one moment, and a raw, distorted rendition the next. Her lyrics are a reflection of her own journey, as she navigates the darker corners of her own psyche and her relationships.
"My art is a reflection of the turmoil that lies within us all," Lily explains. "I’m not singing form a dark place; but am embracing the fragility of relationships. My songs are not about the distruction, they’re about the new beginning that comes from having been vulnerable enough to love at all."
The Dichotomy of Purity and Destruction
Lily Ashes, represents the contradictions that make up our existence. The white lily is often associated with purity, innocence, and new life. However, when it's engulfed in flames, it becomes a symbol of destruction, chaos, and transformation. This paradox is at the core of our artistry, as we aim to push the boundaries between light and darkness.
Her music is a sonic representation of this duality. Weaving together elements of post-punk, darkwave, and gothic rock to create a sound that's both hauntingly beautiful and explosively intense. Her lyrics explore the complexities of human nature, delving into themes of love, loss, and the blurred lines between good and evil.
