Google puts Lyria 3.5 music model in the Gemini app and API
Google put Lyria 3.5, its music-generation model, into the Gemini app and the Gemini API, with genre and vocal-or-instrumental controls plus short or longer tracks.
Google moved music generation into the main Gemini app and API, so it is a default feature — not a side tool for specialists.
Google published “Create your best tracks yet with Lyria 3.5 in Gemini.” The Keyword post announces that Lyria 3.5 is now available in the Gemini app and the Gemini API. That company blog is the filing event.
Google calls Lyria 3.5 “our best-sounding music generation model” and says it brings more expressive vocals and richer musical arrangements so users can craft tracks with higher fidelity. Those are Google’s product claims — not an independent listening test.
In the Gemini app, Google says users can select or describe a genre, choose vocal or instrumental styles, use new templates (from background music to custom birthday tracks), and choose short or longer tracks.
Google says Lyria 3.5 is available to all users globally on the web and in the mobile app. Google also says it is available for artists and AI creatives in Google Flow Music, and for developers and technologists through Google AI Studio and Google Vids.
This filing does not invent sample rates, watermarking or SynthID details, pricing, or artist-voice bans — those do not appear on this primary.
