IKYWC - Myles Morgan

Director - Olivia Lynch

In homage to her namesake, Olivia Lynch’s directorial debut depicts a surreal serenade through space. ‘IKYWC’ taps into the all too familiar feeling of being ghosted as Morgan’s crooning vocal and melancholic brass section echo through the universe.

Shot on a micro-budget in the middle of a pandemic, the video was a labour of love born out of the artist and director’s shared love of classic cinema and fascination with the moon.

Artist - Myles Morgan

‘IKYWC’ is the latest single release from London soulster, Myles Morgan.

Myles has been officially releasing music since 2017, his sound and lyrics paint pensive pictures of various escapades through London life. His writing style is colloquial, in both its form and execution. The opening line sets the tone for the song, depicting someone who has gotten their hopes up only to once again be let down. Left alone he croons, "I knew you wasn't coming, from the moment you said you was coming" in his husky yet melodic timbre. It is completely atmospheric. We have all been there before, and we are transported there yet again as the track unassumingly unfolds. True to his form ‘IKYWC’ features jazzy instrumentation, dreamy guitar riffs accompanied by saxophone & trumpet and a distinctive bass and drum line that completely sets like glue in your head as you find yourself lost and tapping your feet. The structure of the song has poignant lulls and crescendos which weave between the lyrics, giving them all the more sentiment.

Myles Morgan has been described as 'the rising voice of London's disenfranchised underclass',

with laidback crooning vocals. Myles possesses a hugely diverse sound for an expressive performance, which has been demonstrated with a sold-out show at the O2 Academy Islington and in reaching the final stages of Pirate Prodigy. Myles has also supported Loyle Carner at the Sound City Festival Liverpool. with support from BBC, Fred Perry & La Blogothèque.
