Much-acclaimed rising UK talent Eden Rain is back with another stellar new single to remind us all as to why this artist is one to watch.
Lifted from forthcoming debut EP ‘Gutter Vision’ (out in May), ‘Bed (For The Year)’ showcases Rain’s captivating vocals as they glide over a production that fuses alternative pop with indie.
“About 10 years ago, when I was in high school, I was given a book called ‘The Woman Who Went To Bed For A Year’. It was written by Sue Townsend and it sat on my bookshelf for a really long time and I didn’t actually read it, I just always stared at the cover of the book from my bed. When I was sad, (classic) for an extended period of time (depressed), I found that I couldn’t stay away from my bed. I read the book then because I was like ‘ugh, wish I could be in bed for a year’, and it’s about a married woman who’s twin children move away from home and she goes to bed for a year and doesn’t leave. And so that’s what the book is and what the song is based on, in a nutshell. I return to the book (and the bed) when life gets hard and I wanted to write an ode to that.”
Alongside the release of the EP, Eden plays London’s Folklore Hoxton on the 22nd May 2023 – tickets can be found here.
With more than 200k catalogue streams on Spotify alone, as well as tastemaker praise from internationally respected outlets, 2023 might be Rain’s biggest year yet.
