      <image:caption>Laena Myers’ 2024 debut solo release, LUV (Songs of Yesterday), showcases a multi-faceted and emotionally evocative singer-songwriter and musician. Drawing from an experimental punk background of guitar-based songwriting merged with deep classical violin roots as well as a life-long love for singing ballads, the resulting songs featured on the album contain a depth of emotion that cuts to the heart of even the most hardened. The 11-track collection is the first to feature the genre-spanning composer, session violinist/singer and chronic band member putting her own name to her recordings. Live, she plays both guitar and violin in addition to singing- utilizing looping, samples and usually a musical comrade or two (or eleven!) to aid her in creating an enormous sonic world that draws you in and holds you tight.  LUV (Songs of Yesterday) was well-received, with critical acclaim from print publications such as Mojo Magazine - "Myers' solo debut feels full to the brim, with experience, ideas and detached cool", as well as UNCUT - “The title track is a dreamy, instrumental swirl … while the gorgeous 'Give Em Hell' has power, resilience and a country song's attitude to starting over."</image:caption>
