Luxembourg pop singer and songwriter TYRA brings a very real personal history to “Close to Ruin”. Music was her escape following the illness and death of her brother, which ultimately led her to training in Freilassing and Salzburg. That’s the context that makes the record so interesting.

Behind the chart positions and the international airplay is a very genuine story of someone who went into songwriting as a result of bereavement. The very title of the record, ‘Close to Ruin’, speaks of a very fragile emotional state and that’s something which her biography gives real substance to. Her career is in itself a reason to pay attention to this release.
