Lyle de Vitry | February 15 – March 9, 2024
Hailing originally from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Lyle grew up in a household filled to the brim with music. The now Asheville-based songwriter’s carefully crafted melodies and poetry are imaginative and thought provoking as he explores themes of nature, love, memory, and the passing of time. At the heart of his creative practice, he explores the intimate relationships between sound and our emotional experience – and how music can foster both personal and community healing. A multidisciplinary artist, his body of work is extremely diverse in terms of form, content, and instrumentation. Ranging from lush ensemble orchestrations and arrangements to beautifully subtle musings on the guitar, Lyle’s work does not inhabit one genre sphere. Audiences around the country have found solace in his performances as he flows between introspective instrumental guitar compositions and meditative songs. In 2023, he performed as a finalist in the nationally recognized Telluride Troubadour and LEAF New Song Competitions. His highly anticipated debut album, “Door Within A Dream,” is set to be released this summer.
