MIKE CYRIL MUSIC

Narrating a backroom conversation between avant-garde and pop, with an honest baritone

and distinct lyricism, Mike Cyril pits maddening beauty against genre. Ranging from minimal

to extravagant, imbued with brooding intensity and flourishing emotions, his music is

inherently cinematic.

Originally from Philadelphia, Cyril’s artistic path led him to New York City, where he collaborated

with producer Jarret Wetherell to craft his debut EP, Goodbye My Maze . Featuring contributions

from Marlon Saunders (Lauryn Hill, Nine Inch Nails), Benjamin Lazar Davis (Okkervil

river,Cuddle Magic) and violinist Manami Mizumoto, the EP unfolds like a soundtrack, weaving

noir-tinged ballads with sweeping orchestral arrangements.

His forthcoming LP, Radiant Sorrow , was recorded between New York and Italy working with

producers Jarrett Wetherell and Leo Di Lenge respectively, featuring an eclectic mix of

instruments and styles. Throughout the recording process, he collaborated with an eclectic cast

of musicians. With contributions from Pianist Sara Goldstone (Boy Genius,Kimbra), Drummer

Piero Perelli (Glen Hansard, Vinicio Caposella) and Violinist Margot. Beyond songwriting, Cyril

has composed for film, including the award-winning Greetings From Arizona .

With a career spanning multiple creative disciplines—from experimental hip-hop to industrial

pop and film and fashion collaborations—Cyril remains committed to pushing artistic

boundaries. His upcoming album Radiant Sorrow is set for release in June of 2025, followed by

an extensive tour in the US and Europe.
