Portland based songwriter Leo Islo continues to go from strength to strength with each subsequent release. ‘Lush Life’ is Islo’s first original of 2017 as the artist opens a new chapter in his already promising career.

Raw, untamed bass lines with Leo’s signature grainy distortion gives the track an undeniably, powerful character. A mixture of ambient chords, undulating pads, and field recordings add a variety of textures to the song.

Tapping vocalist Dani Poppitt for this single reveals Islo’s progression as a budding composer and songwriter. Her captivating solo and beautiful, harmonic pairing with Islo will leave you breathless. Capped off with several electrifying guitar solos, ‘Lush Life’ will certainly leave fans wanting more.

LEO ISLO is the moniker of Portland-based producer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist Matt Pahler.

Born in Santiago, Chile and raised in the small mountain city of Flagstaff, Arizona, LEO ISLO amassed an eclectic mix of art from the world around him, instilling a sense of wanderlust at a young age. By 17 and armed with a fake ID, he began touring as a drummer playing at a variety of venues across Arizona from local bars and clubs to casinos and popular lounges. It wasn’t long before his desire and self-motivation lead him to songwriting and learning guitar.

It was during a move from Los Angeles to Portland that LEO ISLO found himself drawn to the world of electronic music for the first time. Artists like Jai Paul, Neon Indian, Toro Y Moi, Caribou, Washed Out, and Grimes became early influences on his approach to production, fueling his propensity to create tracks with retro-soaked synths, ethereal pop vocals, warm guitar lines, and analog driven beats.

---- LYRICS -----

colors how they run.
they’re flowing just like.     
rivers from the sun— and I wonder why.

I’m so drunk in love.
from the look in your eyes.
the neon shining down on you, so… 
	
lost in the moment. said you could tell.
I built a few bridges, I burned a few well.
but it don’t really matter. I’m over myself.
tonight I want to be somebody else.

in that lush life
baby I’ll be dancing with you all night.
and something had me thinking we could stay this high.
I can’t help feeling- theres somewhere better with you…
		
in that lush life.
baby if you stay until the sunrise
maybe in the morning we could still be high.
I can’t help feeling- there’s something better with you.

I could feel the buzz. 
when your eyes found mine.
the dark of the club— the flash of the lights.

and it might be a crush. 
but it felt so right. 
with neon shining down on you, so— 

lost in the moment. said you could tell.
I built a few bridges, I burned a few well.
but it don’t really matter. I’m over myself.
tonight I want to be somebody else.

in that lush life
baby I’ll be dancing with you all night.
and something had me thinking we could stay this high.
I can’t help feeling- theres somewhere better with you…
		
in that lush life.
baby if you stay until the sunrise
maybe in the morning we could still be high.
I can’t help feeling- there’s something better with you.
