Brynja Rán is nearly impossible to ignore. Boasting incredibly luscious, elegant and dynamic vocals, the Icelandic songstress is capable of soothing, evocative and cathartic soulful gems, drawing influences from great contemporary vocalists such as Amy Winehouse, Lana Del Rey and Billie Eilish. ‘Lullaby’ is the perfect evidence of that. A sultry, intimate piece, the track puts Rán’s glorious vocal tone on a pedestal, wrapping the listeners in intricate melodies and hypnotising energy.
Built on a mellow and gentle soul background, ‘Lullaby’ also boasts a good amount of groove, together with an eclectic, vibrant guitar solo that tickles the ears and provides the perfect counterpoint to Brynja’s honey-like lyricism. Serving as the project’s debut single, ‘Lullaby’ “is about being tired of men saying the same things over and over again!” – as the Icelandic creative eloquently explains.
