Lakshay Puri makes his debut with pop-rock single ‘a boy with no backbone’

Mumbai, 1^st February 2026: Emerging artist Lakshay Puri makes his debut with the single “a boy with no backbone”, a pop-rock track that confronts inner conflict, self-doubt, and the emotional weight of growing into oneself. Deeply personal in both sound and storytelling, the song offers an unfiltered introduction to Lakshay’s artistry and perspective on life.

Opening like a quiet diary entry, “a boy with no backbone” begins with restraint and vulnerability before steadily building toward expansive, arena-rock sonics by its bridge. The sonic progression mirrors the emotional arc of the track, moving from introspection and self-questioning toward release, confidence, and clarity.

Lyrically told in retrospect, the song reflects a desire to break free from the mental shackles that hold us back and to move through the world with one’s head held high. It speaks directly to listeners navigating their own inner demons, offering a sense of recognition and empowerment rather than resolution.

By choosing this as his debut release, Lakshay Puri invites audiences into his inner world, creating music meant to be felt in everyday in-between moments, on long commutes home from work or school, where honesty and connection matter most. With “a boy with no backbone,” Lakshay looks to establish himself as an artist rooted in vulnerability, emotional truth, and cathartic pop-rock expression.
