British singer-songwriter Kyra, has quickly established herself as a key player in the UK music scene. Her unorthodox and gripping releases from debut EP project 'Xanadu', caught the attention of BBC Radio 1's Nick Grimshaw, featuring in his 'track of the week' series, Jamz Supernova's BBC1Xtra Top 5 EPs and Jess Izsatt for BBC Introducing.

Showcasing her charismatic and distinct soulful vocal, Kyra released a selection of jazz infused singles; 'after the love', 'blossom spring' (playlisted on Jazz FM) and 'excellent', a self care song created in ode to her beloved sister circle. 2023 became an exciting year of continued success for Kyra, with the release of her second EP 'as things grow', with tracks featured on various editorial streaming playlists such as New Music Friday and Riffs & Runs on Spotify, as well as Brown Sugar and New in R&B on Apple Music. The EP was also championed by BBC Radio London’s Robert Elms, with a live radio performance of ‘grown’, the lead single from the latest project.

Kyra’s music has been amplified with an array of live shows across the UK, including a spellbinding Jazz Re:freshed showcase and performances at iconic London venues such as Jazz Cafe, Lafayette, Koko Camden, Soho House and Southbank. A Wilderness festival performance lending vocals to UK Jazz favourites Blue Lab Beats, led to Kyra and the duo collaborating on new music together, further cementing Kyra’s presence within the burgeoning London Jazz scene.

Kyra’s undeniable vocal range leaves no question of her live abilities. Garnering new fans with each performance, it’s clear Kyra is on the cusp of becoming an exciting breakout artist. With more music on the horizon delving deeper into the vulnerabilities of being a woman and motherhood, Kyra aims to use her voice to connect with lovers of jazz and soul across the globe.

2024 proved to be an exciting year for Kyra, with two sold out headline shows under her belt, a debut international showcase appearance at the renowned SXSW Music Festival in Austin, Texas and a feature on Blue Lab Beats latest album, ‘Blue Eclipse.’ For the majority of 2025 Kyra’s time has been spent in the studio, working with an array of new collaborators on exciting new music. The first new single ‘Strong Ones’, released last October alongside a sold out headline gig at the Royal Albert Hall’s Elgar Room marks Kyra’s first music release since 2023.

Back to back singles have continued consistently into 2026. Kyra’s further exploration of self has led to the delivery of poignant topics, surrounding the challenges of womanhood. Through each release, Kyra invites listeners into an ever-deepening world of vulnerability, strength and self-discovery. As she continues to evolve both sonically and personally, her artistry resonates far beyond the music—marking her as a defining voice of a new generation of UK soul.
