Singer Spotlight: WYNGS Interview

Rising artist WYNGS is proving that the most powerful music comes from unflinching honesty. After building a devoted following online through emotional covers that resonated deeply with listeners, WYNGS is now channeling that raw vulnerability into original music. With a debut single on the way, this emerging talent is transforming fear, guilt, and the messy process of healing into songs that feel painfully real. Drawing inspiration from artists who aren't afraid to be emotionally vulnerable, WYNGS creates music born from lived experiences—the kind that helps both artist and listener finally breathe.

We sat down with WYNGS to talk about finding catharsis through songwriting, the fear and freedom of performing live, and learning to create at your own pace.

How did music first become part of your life, and what led you to the sound you're creating now?

Music has always been the place where I could finally breathe. I started singing pretty early on—not because I desperately wanted to become an artist, but because it helped me cope with my fears and my sadness. It was the only way to get my thoughts out of my head. Sometimes it feels like I'm holding my breath all day, and then I sing, and everything just falls away from me. My music was born out of the things that happened in my life. It's about the parts of me that I was afraid of myself, the parts I couldn't admit to for a long time.

What's fueling your creativity right now? Any specific artists, moments, or ideas shaping your work?

My life itself is my biggest inspiration, haha. Especially learning and accepting that sometimes you're not the victim in the story, but the person who pushes others away because they're afraid of getting hurt again. Moving from a toxic relationship into a healthy one completely changed me. It feels like you're constantly cleaning up chaos you didn't even cause, and still living with the constant fear of ruining everything again. That fear, that guilt, that self-reflection… all of it finds its way into my songs. That's exactly why artists who aren't afraid to be emotionally naked inspire me.

Can you tell us what you're currently working on? Any releases or projects on the horizon?

In a few weeks, I'm releasing my very first song and it still feels surreal to say that out loud. This song is incredibly personal. I remember sitting in my car and crying when it was finished, because every single line felt painfully real. Writing it was hard for me. Being that honest with myself was scary—but at the same time, it was so, so freeing.

Take us inside your creative process—how does a song come together for you, from start to finish?

For me, it usually all starts alone in my bed. I write poetry when my thoughts get too loud—about feelings, or lines that just won't leave my head. From these texts, the songs come to life together with my closest friends. We sit down, share ideas, try everything, and let ourselves be completely guided by the feeling. There's no fixed timeline. Sometimes a song comes together in one night; sometimes it takes weeks or months to really grow. I know it's finished when we all feel it, and we all say: "Yes, this is it."

Looking back, what stands out as your proudest moment so far?

Honestly, the biggest highlight of my musical journey so far has been writing my very first song and realizing how much it moved me personally, because every single line felt so real. In that moment, I understood why I do this at all. It was simply about finally letting out something I had carried inside me for so long. Knowing that I had turned these feelings into a song and that I would soon be able to share it with others was by far the most meaningful moment of my journey.

What's been the toughest part of this journey for you?

Definitely performing live. Being alone in the studio, writing and recording my stories, is one thing—but going on stage and sharing it all live with people? That's a whole different level. Live, everything feels bigger and much more open. You can't take a single moment back, and every emotion is out there for everyone to see. That scares me, but at the same time, that's exactly where the magic happens—when you realize that people are feeling what you feel. It makes being an artist both the hardest and the most beautiful experience at the same time.

"You should post because it's fun, because you love creating—not because of the numbers...  It can be hard to separate your own value from the algorithm, but that's exactly where you grow."

If you could go back to the beginning, what's one thing you'd tell yourself?

One thing I wish I had known when I started is that it's okay to take your time and trust your own pace. At the beginning, you often feel like you have to do everything at once, know everything already, and be perfect at it. But the truth is, growth, honesty, and finding your own sound take time—and that's completely okay. I also wish I had understood earlier how important it is to protect your own creative space. Not everything has to be shared immediately. Not every thought or feeling has to turn into a song right away. Sometimes it's exactly that pause, really feeling it, and coming back to it later that makes a piece of work stronger.

You've built a strong presence online—what's been the best part of that, and what's harder than people realize?

The best part about building a music career online today is definitely the freedom to share everything directly with people and to find those who feel the music the same way you do. But the hardest part, and what many don't realize, is staying consistent, even during the tough phases. You should post because it's fun, because you love creating—not because of the numbers. And that's probably the hardest lesson for me sometimes too: learning not to measure your work by whether it gets the "right" amount of views or likes. It can be hard to separate your own value from the algorithm, but that's exactly where you grow.

@dog. No words needed.

Five years from now—what does success look like to you?

In five years, I hope I'm still doing exactly the same thing I'm doing now—just with the addition of touring, ideally internationally. That would be my biggest dream.

What do you not want people to think about you?

I don't want people to think that I make my music for anyone but myself. I don't want to conform. I just want to tell my stories—also because it helps me understand myself.

Outside of music, what's something you're passionate about that might surprise us?

I used to be completely in love with gymnastics. I really loved it—the combination of strength, control, and movement… it was like its own language for me. It always helped me bring my body and mind into harmony. But then I had an accident, and since then I can't do it the way I used to. It taught me how important it is to do what you love, for as long as you can.
