About

Lynks is the electrifying alter ego of Bristol-based artist Elliot Brett, a provocateur who blends campy theatrics, razor-sharp wit, and infectious beats into a sound that defies categorization. With a penchant for absurdist humor and a flair for the dramatic, Lynks crafts a sonic universe where queer punk energy collides with hyperpop, indie dance, and post-punk influences. Think LCD Soundsystem meets Peaches, with a dash of David Byrne’s eccentricity. Emerging from the DIY scene, Lynks gained traction with their 2020 debut EP *Smash Hits, Vol. 1*, a collection of satirical anthems that skewer modern dating and queer culture. Tracks like "Str8 Acting" and "How to Be Successful" became instant cult favorites, earning praise for their biting lyrics and irresistible hooks. Lynks’ live performances are legendary, featuring elaborate costumes, choreographed chaos, and a magnetic stage presence that blurs the line between concert and cabaret. Beyond their music, Lynks has become a cultural force, championing queer visibility and challenging norms with unapologetic flair. Collaborations with artists like Grove and Folly Group have further cemented their reputation as a boundary-pushing innovator. In 2023, Lynks released their debut album *ABOMINATION*, a bold exploration of identity, desire, and societal expectations. Currently, Lynks continues to tour extensively, bringing their anarchic energy to stages worldwide while working on new material that promises to push their artistry even further.
