Alt-Pop Songwriter Apryll Aileen Plays With Fire on “In These Flames” from New ‘Bad Things’ LP

There are lots of people who sing but not everyone has a voice. Apryll Aileen is a classically trained pianist with a touch of science and spirituality; an alt-pop soulful vocalist, guitarist and songwriter from Atlantic Canada. She transcends genres, creating her own undefinable sound with influences coming from pop, rock, electronic, folk and R&B. She doesn’t imitate – she creates.

Apryll’s new full-length release, Bad Things, spans love, heartbreak and adventure while dancing through inner shadow work. It is an album that inspires and uplifts while simultaneously shining a light on that which drags us down. It is one woman’s journey on the road as an artist, forging her own path and exploring the depths of her soul through internal introspection and connection with others. Written between Los Angeles, New York, Atlantic Canada and the United Kingdom, Bad Things was produced by Grammy nominated Daniel Lafrombe (John Legend, Amy Wadge).

Focus track, “In These Flames,” plays with fire, toys with trust issues, and hints at the double life of being a spy. Trust can be a volatile agent; when violated, it can either go up in flames or slow burn over the heat of passionate embers. What happens next is a mystery.
