Sheffield born artist Nyra has been music obsessed from a young age. Influenced by his grandfather's 80’s record collection, he grew up listening to all sorts of musical influences; electro, new wave, soul, disco and funk, all genres he takes nods from today in his own productions.
Sheffield has always been a melting pot of musical talent, from clubbing institutions like Bed and The Republic, to labels like Warp who are still flying the flag for innovative, underground Uk talent. Nyra’s teens were spent soaking up all Sheffield had to offer, finding his feet in the music that spoke to him, cultivating his skills formally as a Dj, then a producer.
Nyra’s musical journey continued and in 2008 he founded the club night Downlo at Dan Sane, hosting guests such as Ben UFO, Steffi, Baby Ford and Luke Solomun. This infamous warehouse party put the steel city on the map for underground parties and paved the way for now established venue Hope Works.
After a successful career switch as a professional cyclist Nyra moved to London in pursuit of his next musical endeavour. With broader life experience he hit the ground running, releasing records with Secretsundaze & Elastic Dreams and starting his own imprint Canoe. Now with 12 releases under its belt and support from the likes of Job Jobse, Eris Drew, Midland, The Blessed Madonna, Gerd Jansen and Lauren Garnier, Canoe has cemented Nyra’s artistic integrity and authenticity.
