Coy's debut Ep features two amazing tracks!
'You Are an Art' by Coy drops the 10th of December '19 on all major streaming platforms.

"These tracks mean a lot to me as the represent a sort of rebirth, of myself and my music. I'm trying to take my listeners on a journey into a realm that will definitely be different for everyone that has the time to listen, which is what I want to emphasise - that everyone is different yet the same. It's easy to relate to ourselves but it takes more to step out of that comfort zone and imagine what type of world they live in."

This is a rework of 'You Are an Art' perfect for a sunset under an beautiful terran sky or down an open road
