PRESS AND REVIEWS
Lyric has been featured and interviewed in various media outlets including CBC, CP24, Rogers TV, SIRIUS Radio and has had many articles written about him including being featured in Guitar International Magazine 2015.
“Did you ever just have the feeling you were in the company of greatness? For instance, I wonder what the people in Elvis’s high school thought when they first heard him sing. Chills right? Well that’s what I got when I first heard and then saw Lyric Dubee.”  JOHN REIGN – CRANK IT UP MAGAZINE, USA 
“Dubee could well be the next Jon Bon Jovi: equally at home and confident writing his own songs, composing with others, and performing in various genres like the seasoned entertainer that he already is. It’s when he steps out of his comfort zone, however, that he truly lets his genius bloom.” LAURIER TIERNAN – METROPOLIS MAGAZINE, Japan
Combat of Love Album review: “I like this “Combat Of Love!” … It has some damned good guitar work + lyrics set to what I would call a semi – rock beat! … Pleasing to the ear & containing just enough emotion to keep you coming back for another listen! … Can’t wait to hear some more of this guys work!” COUNT, MUSIC DIRECTOR AT WAYOUTRADIO.CO.UK
2014 Black Ice Single Review “Lyric continues to outdo himself with each and every song. He is a lot like Eric Clapton, you never know what is coming, but when it gets there it blows you away… He is going to become a legend.” TOMMY NEAL – STARS2COME.COM

Original songs. Written in a week. Recorded live.

The Acoustic Guitar Project was created to inspire songwriters to make more music. 

Here's how it works:

1. We choose a city and a local musician and provide them with an acoustic guitar and hand held recorder.

2. That musician has one week to record an original song and record it live. No editing is allowed. They have to record it as many times as needed to get it just right.

3. When the musician is finished, they sign the guitar and pass it on to the next musician in that city. When that city’s guitar reaches 5 musicians, there is a concert and every musician plays the song they wrote for the project.

https://www.cbcmusicsearchlight.ca/entries/69878 Thanks everyone who have voted for me - you can vote for me once a day everyday until April 20th. Please help me make my dream I've been working on since a teenager become a reality. Thank you for sharing and caring. Hugs and God Bless, 
Been playing music all my life, picked up an acoustic guitar when I was 14 years old and started teaching myself how to play by writing my own material. 

I started playing in bands from there and decided to do it for a living for many years after that, playing across Canada and then mostly BC and the Vancouver area. 
Because it's very hard to make a living out of this these days, I've been working in an office for the last 15 years to subsidize my income.

I had the pleasure of honing in on my craft of songwriting when I went down to Nashville and cowrote with some amazing songwriters for a few months. I also had the privilege to volunteer in a Publishing Company and see how it works.   It was very exciting time in my life.

I love music without it I just don't feel alive.  I hope that who ever listens to my stuff that you enjoy it and thank you so much for stopping by.  

Mikalyn’s ascent in the music business has been an atypical journey thus far. She gained an initial unconventional foothold when a Brazilian record label called @RevenBeats discovered her original / piano-driven music on Soundcloud and offered to transform them into Dance & EDM hits. What followed were monster collaborations with the likes of @OwnbossOficial, @JetlagMusicOfficial, @Zuffomusic, @Evokings, @RQntz, @ZerkMusic, @DiskoverMe, @KohenMusic, among others. These collabs, released in labels such as Universal, Sony Music and Controversia / @SpinninRecords, although not the direction she expected to take at the beginning of her career, were crucial stepping stones in building her repertoire and fanbase, ultimately introducing new listeners to her original alt-pop stylings. The Canadian singer-songwriter from Guelph pens relatable songs which touch on relationships and her experienced emotions.

 Inspired by the likes of Amy Winehouse, Adele, Billie Eilish, Halsey, Lana Del Rey, Lorde, Melanie Martinez and Ellie Goulding, Mikalyn’s sound is a vibrant and colourful blend of infectious pop melodies, soaring vocals and polished production. With millions of streams for her music to date, she has received airplay on CBC radio and her songs being placed on numerous Spotify editorial playlists, including "Indie Pop", "Bedroom Pop", "EQUAL Canada" and Brazil's "Dance Paradise" - where she was featured on the cover.
  
 With a one-of-a-kind style and unwavering drive, Mikalyn shows no signs of slowing down on her already impressive trajectory as she launches her indie-pop career.
