Fifteen-year-old Peruvian singer Lucía Lay begins the year with the release of her new single ‘Faker’, continuing to build a bold and honest voice within the pop rock scene. Following three singles and an EP released in 2025, Lucía embraces her music career as both a challenge and a space for self-expression.
Blending teen pop energy with pop rock attitude, ‘Faker’ draws inspiration from artists like Sabrina Carpenter while maintaining Lucía Lay’s own perspective. Her music reflects high school life from the inside out, focusing on emotional intensity, vulnerability, and an alternative sense of rebellion that contrasts with the curated and superficial world of social media.
‘Faker’ was written during a period of self-discovery and explores the pressure many teenagers feel to fit into expectations that do not reflect who they truly are. Musically, it is Lucía Lay’s most pop-driven track to date, combining guitars, synthesizers, bass, drums, and vocals into a bright but emotionally grounded sound.
“Faker is a representation of teenage life where each person’s identity develops and I try not to fake a personality that isn’t mine.”
With this release, Lucía Lay continues to experiment with new sounds while staying rooted in honest storytelling. ‘Faker’ captures the uncertainty of adolescence with confidence, presenting a young artist who is unafraid to question identity and speak openly through her music.
