‘LayLow’ drenches you in Latin-inspired tones and horns that blast you from behind. The melody grabs hold of you and will not let go as you move to the beats. The guitar tones bubble up during the chorus while the horns come back at you after lying low for the versus. While the melody captures you and gets you moving, it also glides across your skin in this wonderful way. Everything comes to a head close to the end with a punch of sound.

As her vocals infiltrate your brain, the lyrics hit hard. The song calls out abusers and warns them to lay low. When the melody comes to a head, her vocals give way for a bit but come back with a vengeance.
Suchy sends out a warning and tells you to love and respect yourself in the funky but hard-hitting single ‘LayLow’. The melody is engaging and full of energy which is enhanced by Suchy’s vocals.
