Wyvern Lingo are not supposed to be talking in Ireland via Zoom. They are meant to be in Berlin, the city the Wicklow-born trio made their home in early 2020, renting apartments and establishing themselves on the live music scene. It’s also where they recorded Awake You Lie, their sophomore album due on February 26 on Rubyworks.

Caoimhe Barry (vocals, drums, guitar), Karen Cowley (vocals, synth, bass) and Saoirse Duane (vocals, guitar) are a dream musical package. Singers who also write and play instruments, their music is autobiographical in the main.
