2012: Magazine
Foy released her debut single Magazine in September 2012 under her band's name, Wall. Michael Cragg of the Guardian said of Foy, "You get the sense that even a whisper could overpower her soft coo of a voice."
2013: Shoestring & Easy
In March 2013, Foy released her debut EP Shoestring, named after the title track of the same name. The EP also included the tracks Left to Wonder, Place Too Low and All Alone. Later in 2013 Foy released a double a-side called Easy/Head Down via the label Subpop.
In 2013, Foy dropped her stage name Wall for her real name, Lyla Foy. She explained, "At first I wanted something abstract to put some distance between me and the identity of the music, but as things grew I wanted to put my name to the songs not the other way round."
2014: Mirrors The Sky
On 18 March 2014, Foy released her debut album, Mirrors The Sky, again with the label Subpop. The album contained ten songs, including Honeymoon, I Only and No Secrets.
