We’ve lost count of how many times we’ve featured British starlet Eden Rain, but with such a strong run of releases lately, we can’t help but share another superb track with you.
Intensely captivating in tone, ‘Crumb’ is taken from Rain’s ‘Gutter Vision’ EP (out 19th May), and treats listeners to an intricately produced fusion of indie and alt-pop.
“I’ve always had a strong link to crumbs, I’m always covered with them, creating them, eating them, but this song was kind of a different link. I wrote ‘Crumb’ with Jonny Breakwell in his lovely fairy light lit room and as I was writing about a situation I had been involved in in the past, I sort of realised that I had been willingly lapping up the bits of a attention that someone had given me, like a little dog sat under the table waiting for crumbs. I clocked that when writing the verse so it made sense that the chorus would go in on the crumb metaphor. Whewww… that day was like a free therapy session and every time I’ve played the song since then I think about how obvious the situation was before it clicked in my head. I’m a girl that likes knowing how I stand with people but I realised that no matter how hard I tried there were some situations and some people that just couldn’t or wouldn’t reciprocate the love I was trying to give them. Anyway I’m so very proud of this song and it’s so fun to sing and dance along to. It’s the year of the Crumb!”
‘Crumb’ was created alongside acclaimed producer and engineer Jonny Breakwell, who has also worked with the likes of PinkPantheress and Goldlink. Rain plays a sold-out show at London’s Folklore Hoxton on the 22nd May, but you can get on the waiting list by clicking here.
