Talented artist Liya Shapiro, shares her debut single “The Thing“, which is available now on all digital stores.

BEHIND THE SCENES, LET’S KNOW MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST: London-based singer-songwriter Liya Shapiro steps into the music scene with her first official release, “The Thing.” This debut single is a bold foray into the realm of alternative with distinct elements of post-punk. Shapiro’s inaugural release is a mesmerizing journey that captivates the listener from the first haunting note to the lingering echoes of its surreal ending. In “The Thing,” Shapiro showcases her ability to weave intricate narratives with both depth and ambiguity. While the word ‘love’, only referred to as “the thing”, remains unspoken, Shapiro invites listeners to navigate the intricacies of this intangible force – a phenomenon experienced uniquely by each individual. The song delves into the dual nature of love, portraying it as both a destructive and creative power. The track’s charm lies in its nuances and evocative lyricism. Shapiro invites her audience into a dark, poetic landscape, exploring the unsettling and thought-provoking aspects of love. The verses create an immersive experience, with a brooding atmosphere that is neither pessimistic nor sad but, rather, thoughtfully unnerving. The chorus, a surprising departure from the song’s prevailing mood, injects an element of intrigue. It feels simultaneously out of place and perfectly fitting, mirroring the elusive nature of love itself. This duality within the composition reflects the complexity and ambiguity of love, and adds a layer of intrigue to the composition, making it a compelling listen. While “The Thing” originates from a deeply personal space, its universal themes make it accessible to a broad audience. Some may find themselves moved to dance by its almost club-worthy beats, despite the absence of techno elements, while others will discover it as an intimate, earphone-listening experience. As Liya Shapiro takes her initial steps into the music world, “The Thing” promises an authentic and intriguing introduction to her artistry. We invite you to join her in exploring this emotive and captivating debut on December 15. This is not just a song; it’s an invitation to reflect, to feel, and to be enveloped in the emotive journey that is “The Thing.”
