Compelled by collectivity, spirituality, and care, Lyra Pramuk conjures a rare form of devotional music. The Berlin-based, American multidisciplinary artist—vocalist, composer, producer, DJ, performance artist, and astrologer—merges the limitless potential of the human voice with the magic of technology. Classically trained and raised in Berlin’s club scene, Lyra’s genre-fluid sound, rooted in improvisation, experimental techniques and left-field electronics, has earned acclaim from diverse outlets including Pitchfork, Mixmag, and Vogue.
Her sophomore album Hymnal—a book of transformational worship songs—explores the ecstatic genesis of sacred rituals, expanding the themes of her celebrated 2020 debut Fountain (Bedroom Community). It was released by pop.soil / 7K! on June 13, 2025 to much acclaim.
Sought after in various musical worlds, Lyra has collaborated with Moses Sumney and Sam Smith in a reimagining of Sylvester’s “You Make Me Feel” and has worked closely with Holly Herndon, Caterina Barbieri, Colin Self, and Ben Frost.
As a live performer, she shapes her shows into collective rituals, which she has staged across the globe at Pitchfork Festival London, MoMA PS1, Sonar, Club to Club, and Unsound Adelaide—recent performances include Roskilde, Rewire, and Nuits Sonores.
She recently founded pop.soil, an experimental hub and label that nurtures artistic growth, collaboration, and exchange through digital content, releases, events, and an NTS radio show.
