Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Kelsey Byrne was recently photographed at The Cabanas at The Hollywood Roosevelt for Interview magazine. The images, shot by Zoey Grossman and styled by Dani + Emma, are hypnotic and vulnerable, just like the melodic, electro-pop noir Kelsey creates under the moniker Vérité.

Vérité released Living in May, the follow up to her 2014 EP Echo.
