Winter

Feeling numb
love turned cold
Feeling lost
gave up all hope

I’ve lost myself again

The summer rain
Takes me back to winter
That sudden moment
I began to feel the pain

In the eye of the storm, 
it felt a lot like winter
Only for a moment I’m unsure
Do i need more

Whats left of me
After this cold winter 
My common sense
Decided to be free

Who where we
When all we had was winter
No common ground
To love we’ve lost the key

In the eye of the storm, 
it felt a lot like winter
Only for a moment I’m unsure
Do i need more
Of this.. I’m torn
Only for a moment i am sure
I do want more then this

Winter kept me small like this
So I don’t feel the cold

And winter kept me chained like this
And I have lost control 

Only for a moment I’m unsure
Do i need more
Of this.. I’m torn
Only for a moment i am sure
I do want more

Ylisia is a dutch symphonic metalband with influences of the 80’s & bands such as the (old) Gathering, Evanescence, Within Temptation Stream of Passion but also Kate Bush.

“Sometimes you just find this instant connection. That is when magic happens”
And that my friends, was the beginning of this new adventure ahead of us: “Ylisia”.

Founder, Keyboardplayer & composer George van Olffen (ex Secret Sounds, Moonflower & Kingfisher Sky) asked longtime friend & guitar player Martijn de Zeeuw to join him in the quest for an additional line-up.

In the summer of 2021 With Liesbeth Cordia ( ex annatar, Eve’s Fall) joined on vocals, Eva Levina on drums & Tim Hoogervorst (ex- the Name) on bass.

George & Liesbeth discovered a deep musical connection. Liesbeth found her writing mojo and completed the songs with much needed melodies & lyrics in hyperspeed. Only 3 days after they first met Liesbeth recorded some songs in George’s studio and the songs just instantly came to life. And so the story began.

The band released their first demo’s made in their homestudio not to long ago and instantly got featured on NH-pop “demodrop” the metal-edition where they received very positive feedback. They are ready to rock your pants of and will be playing their first shows soon! So stay tuned!
