about
Wyvern Lingo is made up of Saoirse Duane (guitar, vocals) Caoimhe Barry, (drums, vocals) and Karen Cowley (keys, vocals) Wyvern Lingo have been writing music together since they met at age 11. They originally bonded over hand-me-down albums of Led Zeppelin, Joni Mitchell and Simon & Garfunkel along with the R’n’B of the 90s/00s that then dominated the radio. Their music stitches together this tapestry of influences, all united by their chilling vocal harmonies. Originally from Bray, Co. Wicklow, Wyvern Lingo have been achieving recognition on the Dublin scene for their "soulful, powerful vocals and harmonies." Their set ranges from stripped back a cappella and acoustic folk tunes to heavier, fuller compositions utilising full kit and synth bass. Over the last few years they have played countless Irish festivals such as Knockanstockan and Electric Picnic and have released their first EP. Along with each member balancing college courses, full-time employment and other musical projects, Wyvern Lingo have spent the next year working on their second EP, "The Widow Knows", which was released independently in August 2014. Their debut album, Wyvern Lingo, was released in 2018 and went to number 1 on the Independent Irish Charts, and the Irish iTunes charts and was chosen as one of the Top 10 albums of 2018 according to the Irish Times and Hot Press.
