Star Music artist Lian Kyla recounts her evolution as a person and songwriter through her first full-length album \u201cUnang Hakbang<\/a>,\u201d which contains tracks she composed over the course of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn’t know how to write songs before. I would scribble lines of poetry in my journal and marvel at other people’s songs; words and melody blending into one another to tell beautiful stories,\u201d Lian Kyla recounted.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the pandemic hit, alongside a friend, I decided to start writing more of my own songs\u2014not just lyrics but melodies too. It was scary, freeing, comforting, but most of all fun,\u201d she added, noting that some songs in the album will showcase her early attempts at songwriting, arrangement, and music production\u2014a symbolic demonstration of her first steps in pursuing her dreams.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnang Hakbang\u201d includes nine tracks that illustrate love in its many forms such as romantic love, love for friends and family, and most importantly, self-love. Its carefully-crafted soundscapes span a variety of music genres like pop, pop-rock, acoustic pop, musical pop, and R&B\/trap.<\/p>\n
