Rising artist, pianist, and film composer Duanna has unveiled her debut EP, Lona, a five-track journey that captures the essence of transformation with a delicate balance of dreamy pop, subtle electronica, and downtempo elements. Drawing from her classical piano background and a flair for storytelling, Duanna crafts a sound that feels cinematic and relatable. The EP, entirely self-written and mostly self-produced, no easy feat.
Following her successful 2024 singles “Apex,” “Ruins,” and “Haleine,” Lona introduces new layers to her artistry with fresh tracks, including the reflective single “Random Girl.” Duanna’s words reveal the heart of her project: “Embracing duality – darkness and light, strength and vulnerability – has been an important part of my journey.” This introspection is woven throughout the EP, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in a soundscape that’s haunting and hopeful.
Beyond her recording career, Duanna’s work as a film composer for brands like Calvin Klein and platforms like the Time’s Up Foundation has sharpened her ability to merge music with narrative depth. Her scores have been featured at prestigious festivals, and this only scratches the surface of her story. With Lona, Duanna proves that her ability to tell stories through music transcends any single genre, making this debut a promising start for what’s to come.
