Magnet Lips is the alternative/indie project of Armenian producer and songwriter Vahan Sarkissian, founder of Ponx Studios in Yerevan.

Magnet Lips is the project of Vahan Sarkissian, a songwriter and producer based in Yerevan, Armenia.
Sarkissian trained in classical music at the Royal Academy of Music in London, moved into electronic production, passed through hip-hop, and landed in rock. He has also worked in film, including on the score for Invisible Republic, and runs Ponx Studios in Yerevan, where most of his debut album was recorded.
Love & Grief (2026) carries all of it: British rock guitars, hip-hop rhythm and electronic textures, with a classical foundation. Fourteen songs written over ten years, chosen from about 150.
You don't step into love without unlocking what you buried to survive.
