By combining vulnerability with sonically delectable instrumentation, Eylise has given us one of the most satisfying records of the year. More importantly, it plays like a call to arms for reclaiming what R&B has always been about: Passion.

"Lauren Eylise uses her musical art to heal listeners of any heartbreak they are suffering from. Lauren Eylise’s sensual, silky vocals feel like a mesmerizing dream – she creates a late-night, reflective vibe that is powerful and emotional."

"The recent event that sparked a bump in interest in her music was her entry into NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest. She submitted a video performance of her R&B ballad “Peaks and Valleys."

"With her buttery smooth runs, finger-pointing conviction and a sublime backing band, this song has been stuck in my head from the moment I pressed play."
