Born in Auckland but now living in Melbourne, Lakyn - the eponymous musical project of skateboarder-turned-musician Lakyn Heperi - has always used musicianship as an outlet for creativity. Since a skateboarding injury encouraged him to learn guitar, Lakyn has become synonymous with Australia’s genre-bending next generation; his 2018 EP & PAINS, for example, moulding together textures of indie, R&B, hip-hop and pop for a collection of tracks reflective of someone just beginning to hit their stride - both musically and personally.
