After years of writing poetry, SKYLR tried her hand at putting her words to music. When electronic artist Illenium reached out to SKYLR after hearing a demo of hers, she knew she was onto something good.  Her smooth vocals, avante-garde song concepts, and true knack for lyricism quickly came in high demand from collaborators all over the world. The transition from poet to songwriter, and from songwriter to artist has been a journey that SKYLR treasures and hopes to continue to learn and grow from as a singer/musician.  “I have always believed in the power of words, but melodies are more universal. Lyrics floating on a beautiful melody can be transcendent, and there’s no better way to get your message across to the world.” —SKYLR
