From Grief to Growth

Music found Llynks at a time she needed it most—after the loss of her dad at age 15. What started as a personal outlet quickly became her creative fuel. Influenced by Caroline Polachek, Grimes, and Trentemøller, she built a style that’s ethereal, edgy, and entirely her own. Her name? A mystical remix of her full name (Sara Ellyn Kendall), designed to blur the line between artist and alter ego. Today, she uses music as therapy, storytelling, and world-building all in one.

Sound That Hits Different

Llynks doesn’t just make songs—she makes soundtracks to futuristic dreams. Think haunting, cinematic pop layered with introspective lyrics and cyberpunk sparkle. Her track "Heaven Sing Now"? A bold, synthwave anthem that’ll make you feel like a badass alien warrior. It's Charli XCX meets a haunted digital nightclub.

Why EAR Was the Right Move

After years of going it alone, Llynks found a real home at EAR. What hooked her? The team’s authenticity and vision. Since joining, she’s been diving deep into branding, marketing, and growth strategy—things that once felt like a mystery. She’s writing more, experimenting more, and finally seeing a path toward sustainable success. “It’s wild how supported I feel. That’s been the biggest surprise.”

Coming Soon: Time Reborn

Mark your calendar—Time Reborn arrives June 24. This album has been five years in the making, a passion project shaped by introspection, imagination, and an unwavering artistic vision. This concept album tells the story of extraterrestrials who invade Earth to save the planet from humanity itself. Sci-fi heads, Dune lovers, Mandalorian fans—this one’s for you. One standout track, "Don’t Deserve," is already out, offering a powerful preview of what's to come. A stunning music video is still on the way, featuring immersive visuals and a full volume wall. It’s her most immersive project yet.

Fun Facts & Future Plans

If Llynks could be any food? A mushroom—because “they’re magical, mystical, and low-key forest royalty.”

Personal goal: Compose music for TV, games, and eventually make a short film.

Career goal: Build a sustainable career with regular releases and live shows across the U.S.
