Finding Her Voice: Kym Harmoney Faces Her Fears
Discover how Kym Harmoney's debut single 'Face Your Fears' emerges after five years, capturing global attention from Brazil to New Zealand

Staff Reporter -
In the ever-evolving landscape of contemporary music, there are moments when an artist emerges from the shadows with something special – a voice that demands to be heard. Such is the case with Kym Harmoney, whose journey from careful observer to confident performer is beginning to bear fruit in remarkable ways.
Her debut single "Face Your Fears" has been quietly making waves across continents, though the path to its release wasn't exactly straightforward. During a recent conversation with veteran producer Lloyd "Reggaeology" Laing, he revealed that this gem had been tucked away for nearly five years before finally seeing the light of day.
"She's a bold character that takes time to warm up to a crowd, but when she does, she's the life of the party," Laing shared with a knowing laugh, his words painting a picture of an artist who moves at her own carefully measured pace.
Released in early January via DweetandDone Records, "Face Your Fears" has found an unexpectedly warm reception across a diverse global landscape.
From the vibrant music scenes of Brazil and Jamaica to the bustling markets of West Africa, and stretching to audiences in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, the single has been quietly but steadily gathering momentum.
But this is just the beginning.
A new chapter is about to unfold with an upcoming remix by DJ Yagga that promises to transform the track's appeal. The reimagining takes the original's thoughtful composition and infuses it with dancehall energy and a rockers-inspired soundscape – a combination that Laing believes will transport the song from streaming platforms directly to the heart of sound system culture.
As our conversation wound down, there was a sense that we were witnessing the early chapters of a compelling musical story. In Harmoney, we find an artist who reminds us that sometimes the most impactful voices are those that take their time finding their perfect pitch.
If these early indicators hold true, that patience may well have paid off.
Sitting in Laing's studio, listening to the original track and getting a sneak peek at its forthcoming remix, one thing became clear: sometimes the most interesting musical journeys don't begin with a bang, but with a carefully considered step forward.
For Kym Harmoney, that step appears to be the first of many.
