Lucinda Poy Explores the Fragile Truth Behind a 'Liar' in an Empowering Single
What happens when someone you trust shows you a side you never expected? Rising indie-pop artist Lucinda Poy unpacks this haunting question in 'Liar', out now. Blending her pop-rock roots with glowing synths and electronic textures, the track pulses with emotion that is restless, bittersweet, and unshakably honest.
Since her 2024 debut, Lucinda Poy has been making a name for herself, with her debut release 'Just Fine' racking up over 16k streams on Spotify, opening and collaborating with Gina Williams and Guy Ghouse, and her performance of Silent Night with Eurovision performer Dami Im at her sold-out Christmas Songbook Show in Meanjin.
Despite its driving beat and electronic sheen, 'Liar' is quietly devastating as an intimate reckoning wrapped in shimmering sound. The track swells with atmospheric synth layers and heartbeat-like drums, grounding Lucinda's dynamic vocals as they oscillate between airy falsetto and impassioned pleas. Her vocal agility captures every twist of emotion, from confusion to sorrow to reluctant understanding.
The song doesn't shout in anger. It whispers the kind of heartbreak that lingers when someone you love breaks your trust. Subverting expectations, instead of condemning, this song pleads for an answer as to why. Lucinda Poy states,
"Sometimes the people you trust aren't who you think they are. What made them lie to you, and why did they keep you in the dark? Does it make them a bad person? Seeing another side to someone is terrifying, and it can happen in a heartbeat."
Lucinda will bring 'Liar' to life with a special launch show at Lyric's Underground, Perth, on Wednesday, September 25, joined by Pareidolia and Rosalie Chilvers. Expect an emotionally charged set filled with new material and Lucinda's signature vocal power.
Simmering with emotion beneath its pulsing pop beat, 'Liar' is out now.
Single Launch:
