When two dynamic forces in indie-pop music join together, the result is nothing short of captivating. This is precisely what happened when The Ivy and Lyncs united for their new single, “Don’t Fall Asleep To This,” a track that expertly blends soothing, hypnotic melodies with energetic, driving beats. The song is not only a beautiful encapsulation of their combined talents but also sets the tone for the upcoming North American tour, which kicks off on March 25th.
The Ivy, formed by Tulsa-based duo Wyatt Clem and Shawn Abhari, and Lyncs, the solo project of Jacqueline Hynes, met serendipitously during a writing session in Los Angeles. What began as a lullaby-like synthesizer evolved over just a couple of days into a vibrant and upbeat anthem. “Don’t Fall Asleep To This” encapsulates both artists’ ability to craft deeply emotional, introspective music that doesn’t shy away from creating an electrifying atmosphere. It’s a perfect blend of intimacy and energy, capturing the nuances of long-distance relationships with infectious energy.
Lyncs shares that the collaboration felt incredibly natural, stating, “The song started with a mesmerizing, lullaby-like synthesizer… but by the second day, we transformed it into something more upbeat, giving it that dynamic energy that matched both our sounds.” This evolution from dreamy to dynamic speaks to the fluid nature of their collaboration and their shared vision for creating something that resonates with listeners both emotionally and physically.
With an infectious, layered sound, “Don’t Fall Asleep To This” is a track that will likely become an instant favorite, not only for fans of The Ivy and Lyncs but for anyone who appreciates well-crafted indie-pop with a pulse. The video for the single is equally hypnotic, visually complementing the track’s blend of dreamy and dynamic tones. With their upcoming tour and the buzz surrounding this collaboration, it’s clear that both acts are poised for an exciting future.
