"I wish I could say that she is the other woman, but in fact I am. What you see on the cover is a real Instagram photo of the real girl taken by the real boy who inspired this collection of music. She isn't me; I will never be her. Obsession, possession, denial, heartbreak landed me in a position to write and express my way through a difficult situation. He chose her. The songs of Is There Only One? reflect my state of mind as I processed, questioned, and eventually found peace with such a visceral experience with rejection. This led me to think about the structure of relationships, attachment, and how the modern romance is diluted or enhanced by social media. Sometimes the things we do in the name of lust or love forsake reason and logic. We have the most hope despite our knowledge. I had the most hope" - LENA FAYRE

Indie ingénue, Lena Fayre will release her stunning new EP Is There Only One? on July 24. Fayre co-wrote the 5-track collection with producer/mixer/songwriter Noah Georgeson (Joanna Newsom, Devendra Banhart). The first song off the EP, "Do You Like That?" premiered today on Noisey - PRESS HERE<http://noisey.vice.com/blog/Lena-fayre-do-you-like-that> to listen.  Lena recorded the EP in Los Angeles at Seahorse Sound Studios and House of Blues.

Is There Only One? is a bold piece of work.  The power of her vocals is an unlikely match for her petite frame, but Lena Fayre is in command, and the heavy synth with pop and R&B overtones that she's created here is an exciting step forward. From the pulsating opener "Do You Like That?" to the ghostly ballad "Colors of Leaving," the EP shows all her musical sides.  "This project is special because I'm sharing so much from my personal life, which is a first for me," said Lena.

At only 18-years old, the Los Angeles native has amassed millions of YouTube views and Spotify streams, won multiple songwriting awards, self-released her first EP and full length album, and was named an 'Artist You Need to Know' by Rolling Stone in 2014. No small feat for an artist doing things on entirely on her own. PRESS HERE<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAWqa0Tc_oU> to watch the music video for "Everybody's In," which premiered on Pigeons & Planes earlier this year and has over 500K views. Her recently released single "This World" was also featured on the wildly popular CW show The Vampire Diaries in April - PRESS HERE<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RW7Le7GjRsA> to watch the music video for the track.  Lena has been featured in Teen Vogue, Ladygunn, Interview Magazine, Galore, POPULAR and recently recorded a Daytrotter session at SXSW - PRESS HERE<http://www.daytrotter.com/#!/concert/lena-fayre/21021993-37388887> to listen!

Praise for Lena Fayre:

"'Do You Like That?' swirls with a dark, twitchy kind sensuality that belies her years. Liquid beats and stirring strings to close it all out, but Fayre's unerringly confident vocals are the track's most arresting feature." - Noisey

"It's clear that Lena's style is contingent on her wearing many different musical hats. But it's those transformative qualities that speak volumes and make her a force to be reckoned with." - Teen Vogue

"'Everybody's In' is a wonderful introduction. The songwriting is on point, the production is a compelling mix of electronic and organic, but it's her voice that really shines here." - Pigeons & Planes

"[Lena Fayre is] making waves with her special brand of pop music that makes you feel like you've been transported to a colorful yet surrealist alternate universe - especially when you couple it with her music videos injecting the melodies with a whole new dimension." - Ladygunn

"With a haunting, dreamy vibe - think Lana Del Rey meets Warpaint -Fayre's vocals are the kind that stick in your head long after the song has ended." - POPULAR

"Lena Fayre is not yet out of her teens, but she sings like she's lived three lifetimes of disquietude, alternately woozy and weary, dreamy and hopeful, piquant and playful." - Buzzbands.LA
