Laena Myers’ experimental punk background of guitar-based songwriting merges with her classical roots and love for singing ballads, leading to a depth of emotion that cuts to the heart of even the most hardened.
LUV (Songs of Yesterday) may be her debut album as a solo artist, but Laena Myers (FKA Laena Geronimo and Laena Myers-Ionita) is no stranger to the music world. Aside from contributing violin, bass guitar, and vocals to countless recordings and live performances as a supportive player to other artists in the Los Angeles music scene (you can find her discography at Laenasounds.com), she also led her own critically acclaimed and internationally touring band FEELS until their final shows in 2022. Although a self-proclaimed “shy introvert,” Laena and her band became known for instigating a high-energy version of an emotionally cathartic experience; as a songwriter, however, Laena continued to also write dreamier and more vulnerable material that had no place at a head banger’s ball. Out this February, LUV (Songs Of Yesterday) is a collection of these songs- the tender cherries picked over the course of a decade, written purely from a place of honest expression and filled with texture, depth and meaning.
Live, Laena performs with varying accompaniment but most consistently is joined by guitarist/bassist Cole Berliner, playing songs off of her upcoming release interwoven with improvised violin, guitar loops and spoken word.
Laena Myers’ music is the Los Angeles sound we don’t get to hear very often, one that is birthed in the hidden places — unbearably hot bedrooms, caves, not-so-fancy neighborhoods, as well as the hidden places within the artist herself. It is unfiltered but well-crafted, portraying an evocative singer, talented musician, and compelling writer that invites us to come closer and dig deeper.
LUV (Songs of Yesterday) is set for release on February 23rd, 2024 on Taxi Gauche Records.
