Alt-pop rising artist Déyyess shares new single ‘Lips Like Sugar’ – a queer anthem that captures the addictive rush of early romance.
“‘Lips Like Sugar’ is a fantasy story – it’s the hedonistic yearn of a crush, not knowing whether the tension is real or in your head. You think about them when you wake up, and dream about them when you sleep. You wonder what they taste like, fantasise and tell yourself stories about when you might finally kiss, only to realise it was totally one way, and you just have to settle for the version that’s in your head…”

‘Lips Like Sugar’ sees Déyyess continue to explore the intricacies of WLW relationships, unrequited love, queer joy, and life itself.
“I was too scared for too long to use she/her pronouns in my music. I thought maybe it was too much of a big step and I should just keep it gender neutral, but no. No more. Now I can’t stop, it’s completely normal for me now.”
