Lera Lynn is an acclaimed singer-songwriter whose haunting voice, cinematic soundscapes, and genre-defying style have earned her a devoted cult following. Blending Americana, indie rock, folk noir, and art pop noir, she has crafted an unmistakable sonic identity that is both timeless and ever-evolving. Lynn first gained wide recognition for her music featured on HBO’s True Detective (Season 2), where her atmospheric songs and on-screen performance left an indelible mark on viewers.

A fiercely independent artist, Lynn has built a career on thoughtful songwriting, poetic lyricism, and meticulous production, all while nurturing a direct relationship with her fans, running her own independent label, Ruby Range Records. Beyond her own albums, she has composed and produced music for video games, podcast theme songs, and films, collaborated with a vast array of artists, and produced records for others. Her music has been placed in countless films and television series, further cementing her ability to create evocative, cinematic soundscapes. On stage, she has toured from California to Eastern Europe and everywhere in between, delivering mesmerizing performances that captivate audiences worldwide.

Now, 10 years after True Detective, Lynn revisits that pivotal era with True Sessions, a three-song EP reimagining the music that introduced her to a wider audience. This special release serves as a heartfelt gift to her fans, offering a glimpse into how far she has come while honoring the raw, moody essence of those songs.

But Lynn is not one to dwell on the past. On April 18, she will officially announce her ninth studio album, Comic Book Cowboy, set for release on September 19. Expanding her stylistic repertoire while sharpening her singular sound, this album plays with contrasts—gritty realism versus idealized heroism, and the absurdity of living up to a fantasy. It explores the tension between self-perception and the roles society expects us to play, capturing the struggle of wrestling with one’s own mythology.

Both self-aware and even subtly comedic at times, Comic Book Cowboy stands out as an anthem for anyone striving for authenticity in a world so full of expectations. It delivers the moody, immersive textures Lera Lynn fans have come to love while pushing into uncharted sonic territory. Lush production, dynamic arrangements, and deeply introspective lyrics weave together to create an album that feels both familiar and refreshingly new.

With Comic Book Cowboy, Lynn reaffirms why she remains one of the most compelling independent artists of her generation—an artist unafraid to evolve, take risks, and forge her own path, all while staying deeply connected to the fans who have supported her every step of the way.
