Lyla DiPaul

Lyla DiPaul has only ever had one dream; to sing and to play guitar. In 4th grade, when her older brother began to teach her to pick out songs Lyla knew she was hooked. Inspired by the artsy Takoma Park, MD where she grew up, Lyla began performing when she was 11.

Although passionate about songwriting, Lyla felt hesitant to pursue a career in music. It wasn’t until she entered college at Loyola University New Orleans that Lyla found confidence. By second semester, Lyla had switched her major and released her first single.

Since then, Lyla has been discovering what it means to survive as an independent artist. Her EP, Something To Lose, is a perfect example of getting by with a little help from your friends. Recorded entirely at collaborator Riley English’s home studio, each song came together like pieces of a puzzle. Lyla is currently working on her debut album set to be released in 2026!
