LANY

LANY is an American dream pop band formed in Los Angeles, built around the songwriting and vocals of Paul Klein, alongside longtime collaborator Jake Goss. The band's name is an acronym for «Los Angeles New York», reflecting the coastal identity woven into their sound. They emerged via early anonymous SoundCloud uploads before revealing their identities, quickly building a devoted online fanbase.

Their music blends synth-driven dream pop and electronic textures with confessional, often heartbreak-centered lyrics, a combination that resonated strongly with a young, internet-native audience. Early tracks like «ILYSB» became breakout hits that established their sound, while their self-titled debut album and releases such as Malibu Nights showcased a shift toward more emotionally raw songwriting following personal heartbreak. Songs like «Super Far», «13» and «Hurts» continued to expand their catalog of atmospheric, hook-driven pop.

LANY has built its career largely through independent-minded online engagement paired with major-label distribution, touring extensively in support of and alongside other pop and alternative acts. Their sound remains a touchstone for a generation of dream pop and bedroom-pop-adjacent listeners.
