After receiving a wave of support from the likes of KALTBLUT Magazine, Truffle., Dressed Like Machines, Fritz Radio, and Glglz Radio over the last few months, Israeli singer and songwriter Lara Snow has now returned to deliver her highly-anticipated debut EP 'Delete Forever', alongside the newly unveiled single 'Wild Sea'.
Mixing electro-pop production with a smooth and sensual aesthetic, 'Wild Sea' acts as the perfect introduction to the frontwoman's latest work. Following in the footsteps of other alt-pop heroines such as MØ and Robyn, this latest offering showcases her as one of the most promising new acts to emerge in recent times.
So with her new collection now available to stream, we had a chat with Lara to find out more about her influences and what drives her passion for music.

Personal experiences, people in my life and my dreams.

As a teenager I was into Punk-Rock & Pop-Punk. I loved bands such as Alkaline Trio, Bayside & No Use For A Name.
When you wake up in the morning, what kind of music do you like to listen to?
Well, this changes often but at the moment I would say oldies. Love starting the day with Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood’s 'Summer Wine'.

All of them.

The first time that audience sang my lyrics during a show.
