Lylak, a name that hints at color and nature, founder lead vocalist Gide-on Maki says they make a point to play with heart and leave the stage a bit more beautiful than they found it. The indie rock quartet, based in Lexington Kentucly, started in 2015 as a solo project of Gideon's, gradu-ally gaining members and honing their sound. The unique musical back-grounds of the members mix up an eclectic blend of influences, which is a boon for the listener. Interweaving vocals, from Maki and Elizabeth Varnado (vocals/violin/guitar), present approachable lyrics that explore the lighter and darker aspects of life and love, memory and friendship.
