Luchi, a Scottish-Italian singer-songwriter, has captured the attention of music lovers and critics alike with his latest single, “Web Of Lies.” This track not only soared to the No.2 spot on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter Charts shortly after its release but also marked a significant turn in Luchi’s musical narrative, showcasing a darker and more introspective side of his artistry.
Released on June 3rd, ‘Web Of Lies‘ is a compelling breakup anthem crafted from experiences of personal betrayal and emotional resilience. The song delves deep into the anguish of a deceitful relationship—a theme that Luchi brings to life with a blend of emotive lyrics and vigorous production. The track opens with a measured bass drum and subtle bass lines, complemented by Luchi’s brooding vocals. These elements gradually build to a powerful chorus, showcasing Luchi’s trademark vocal strength at around the 42-second mark. Each section of the song builds on the previous one, culminating in a dark and stirring climax. This progression mirrors the emotional journey from vulnerability to empowerment, highlighting Luchi’s talent for converting raw feelings into impactful sound.
Discussing the inspiration behind the track, Luchi shares, “I wrote ‘Web Of Lies’ after a particularly painful breakup. It was a relationship riddled with deceit, where one lie piled onto another until it all unraveled. This song was my way of processing the betrayal and turning that pain into something transformative.” His approach to songwriting is deeply cathartic, using music as a therapeutic outlet to navigate and articulate complex emotions.
Collaborating with producer Chris Stagg, Luchi transformed “Web Of Lies” from a delicate piano ballad into a robust anthem that better encapsulates the intensity of his feelings. Stagg’s influence is evident in the crisp, forceful drum patterns and the layered, airy sound design that envelopes the listener, creating an immersive auditory experience. This darker, edgier sound marks a departure from Luchi’s previous work, indicating his readiness to experiment and evolve as an artist.
Luchi’s journey in music began in the modest setting of his bedroom in Glasgow, where he started writing songs at the age of 13. Music quickly became a sanctuary for him, a space to express and soothe his emotions. By the time he was 17, Luchi was frequenting recording studios, eager to learn every facet of the music production process. His dedication bore fruit when his debut single entered the iTunes Singer/Songwriter Charts at No.9, with subsequent releases consistently landing in the top 10.
Beyond his personal artistic endeavors, Luchi has consistently contributed to the broader music community. His involvement in mentoring programs, such as the Los Angeles Academy for Artists & Music Production, has allowed him to guide emerging artists, sharing insights gained from mentors like Ne-Yo and Charli XCX.
Luchi describes his music as ‘soulful pop’—a style where pop meets deep, emotional resonance, always embedded with a powerful message. He draws inspiration from some of the most emotive songwriters and performers out there, like Adele and Kelly Clarkson. Their ability to reach deep into the heart inspires him to create music that truly moves and connects with listeners.
Looking forward, Luchi is excited about the fresh paths his music is exploring. After a short break, he’s back in the studio, playing with new sounds and gearing up for a busy year of releases. His main aim is to forge a deeper connection with his listeners, providing comfort and empathy through his songs.
