𝐖𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐬𝐞💥the second single from our new album 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐨 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐧 ☀️out March 20. Album pre-orders are live: https://lnk.to/TykettoCloserToTheSun
#Tyketto #WeRise #CloserToTheSun

A strong spirit of optimism and forward drive powers the album’s more arena-ready passages, as Tyketto tap back into their classic arena rock roots —most strikingly on ‘We Rise’.

“In the spirit of ‘Don't Come Easy’ we set out to create a couple of real arena rock anthems and ‘We Rise’ is definitely one of those.” comments vocalist and founding member Danny Vaughn. “It also marked the first real collaborative effort within the band for this album. Harry brought in the guitar riff and the chorus. Chris and I fleshed out the arrangement and the lyrics and before you know it, magic happened! It's a simple message; when you get knocked down, keep getting back up!”

Throughout Closer To The Sun, Tyketto speak to the listener about true life loves, losses and pleasures. From the title track’s triumphant, soaring appreciation of love’s power, to the punchy rawness built to make fists rise and hearts race of “Hit Me Where It Hurts”, to the power balladry of “The Picture”, Tyketto continue to confidently stride the same musical terrain as the likes of Whitesnake and Aerosmith, with the added bonus of being fresh to the ears of many.

Joined by Harry Scott Elliott on guitar, Ged Rylands on keyboards, Chris Childs (Thunder) on bass and Johnny Dee (Doro) on drums, Vaughn leads a lineup that brings exceptional performances and undeniable fire to every track, reaffirming Tyketto as one of rock’s most respected and enduring names. Closer To The Sun was recorded across multiple studios in the UK and Europe, including Flip Flop Studios and the legendary Rockfield Studios in Wales.

𝐖𝐄 𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐄 𝐋𝐘𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐒

IN THE PASSAGES OF TIME
THERE ARE STILL LESSONS TO BE LEARNED
THE BEST LAID PLANS SO OFTEN GO ASTRAY
SOMETIMES WE BURN SO BRIGHTLY
OTHER TIMES WE JUST BURN
IT ISN’T IF YOU WIN BUT HOW YOU PLAY
IT’S HOW YOU PLAY

I USED TO HIT THE RAT RACE RUNNING
HEAD DOWN AND MOVING FAST
ALWAYS TRYING TO GAIN THE UPPER HAND
NOW IT’S TIME TO MAKE SOME CHANGES
MAYBE TAKE A FEW STEPS BACK
I’M DRAWING FEWER LINES INTO THE SAND

WE RISE, WE FALL BUT WE GIVE IT OUR ALL
WE FALL, WE RISE WITH HOPE IN OUR EYES
WHEN IT’S DOWN TO THE WIRE
WE’LL WALK THROUGH THE FIRE
WE RISE, WE FALL AND WE’RE GONNA STAND TALL

WE HAD LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE
WE HAD TROUBLE ON THE ROPES
WE DARED THE WORLD TO DO ITS WORST
BUT CHANGE IS ALWAYS CONSTANT
NO MATTER ALL OUR WANTS AND HOPES
THERE AIN’T NO ONE THAT ALWAYS COMES IN FIRST

WE RISE, WE FALL BUT WE GIVE IT OUR ALL
WE FALL, WE RISE WITH HOPE IN OUR EYES
WHEN IT’S DOWN TO THE WIRE
WE’LL WALK THROUGH THE FIRE
WE RISE, WE FALL AND WE’RE GONNA STAND TALL

(SOLO)

WE RISE, WE FALL BUT WE GIVE IT OUR ALL
WE FALL, WE RISE WITH HOPE IN OUR EYES
WHEN IT’S DOWN TO THE WIRE
WE’LL WALK THROUGH THE FIRE
WE RISE, WE FALL AND WE’RE GONNA STAND TALL
