Tāmaki Makaurau's Hun Lynch unveils her debut album Sycophant. Created with the awhi of Noa Records and the steadfast support of Navakatoa Tekela‑Pule, the record arrives after Lynch’s SRN‑topping single ‘Conan’ and a run of entrancing live performances across the motu. Hypnotic choral layers, looping guitar motifs, and synth work that drifts toward the textural world of musique concrète, Sycophant traces a journey of spiritual rediscovery and marks a debut from an artist forming their sonic universe in real-time. - Flying Out

Sycophant is the first offering of recorded music from the polymathic Tāmaki artist Hun Lynch. Recorded almost entirely at her house on a bedroom setup, Hun wrote, played and produced almost every element on the album (with the exception of one drum track contribution from the master Cory Champion). Sycophant guides us through lucid cinematic scenes saturated in hypnotic choral vocals, driving guitar loops and synth work akin to musique concrète.

Sycophant is a meditation on rediscovering one’s spirituality after both being rejected by and rejecting organised religion. The processing of these experiences becomes a lamentation of Christianity’s participation in the colonial rupture across Te Moana-nui a-Kiwa, from which the album was born. Grappling with co-existing states of love, guilt, fear, lust, grief and hope.

Pulsing between feelings of grandiosity and insignificance, between the atavistic, animal experience of being alive and the existential, cerebral confusion of playing a part in the current world. At the same time, Sycophant is an expression of love and devotion to Hannah’s family and friends and everyone she knows and doesn’t know.

Created with awhi and guidance of Noa records and Navakatoa Tekela-Pule’s unending support and friendship.
