"Google has announced that using its newly incorporated Lyria 3 model, Gemini users will be able to generate 30-second music tracks based on a prompt, or remix an existing track to their liking. The new model builds on Gemini's pre-existing ability to generate text, images and video, and will also be available in YouTube's "Dream Track" feature, where it can be used to generate detailed backing tracks for Shorts."
"Like some other music generation tools, prompting Gemini doesn't require a lot of detail to produce serviceable results. Google's example prompt is "a comical R&B slow jam about a sock finding their match," but after playing with Lyria 3, you can definitely get more granular about individual elements of a track - changing the tempo or the style of drumming, for example - if you want to."
"Google says that Lyria 3 improves on its previous audio generation models in its ability to create more "realistic and musically complex" tracks, give prompters more control over individual components of a song and automatically generate lyrics. Gemini's outputs are limited to 30-second clips for now, but given how Google's promotional video shows off the feature, it's not hard to imagine those clips getting longer or the model getting incorporated into other apps, like Google Messages."
Lyria 3 generates 30-second music clips and can remix existing tracks from text, image, or video prompts. The model allows both simple prompts and granular control over elements like tempo and drum style, and can automatically generate lyrics. Outputs can be paired with album art produced by the Nano Banana image model. Lyria 3 is integrated into Gemini and YouTube's Dream Track for Shorts, and its clips are currently limited to 30 seconds. Generated songs are watermarked with SynthID to indicate AI origin, and a SynthID detector began rolling out at Google I/O 2025.
