Liotia are a duo with a unique sound, fusing ambient instrumentation with enticing vocal lines. Their latest single "Breathe Again" features vibrant synths and ethereal vocals that will keep you coming back for more.
"This song reflects on time spent during lockdown - dreaming of a better place to be. I wrote this song when everything felt particularly dystopian and uneasy. Being a natural introvert, I didn't mind the confines of being at home yet the unknown and change in normal everyday life was unsettling. I wanted the lyrics to be transparent as I'm sure a lot of people were feeling similar. Although this song has been brewing for a couple of years it still feels very relevant to me, and Matt's production along with bass from Doug Wimbish and drums from Josh Magill makes me incredibly excited about this release. "
The pair have had a wealth of backing, including plays on BBC Radio 6, BBC Introducing and being featured as part of Bandcamp's weekly roundup. They've also had overseas support via Kiss FM Australia, Today FM in Ireland, and regional plays within the UK throughout London. The band's upcoming work features collaborations with Doug Wimbish (Living Colour, Sugarhill Gang) and Syd Arthur drummer Josh Magill.
