I wrote 'aphrodite' while living in my van during the summer of 2023, parked in a serene nature reserve in the Surrey Hills. It explores the extraordinary feeling of loving someone so profoundly that they seem divine, while grappling with the fear of loss that comes with it.
Eden's dedication to honesty and authenticity permeates every note, influenced by luminaries such as Fleetwood Mac, Marika Hackman, and Flyte.
Following the success of previous singles 'everything you touch' and 'I am whatever you want me to be,' this new release cements Eden's reputation as a masterful narrator of human experience.
With its blend of evocative folk lyricism and gentle indie-rock melodies, Eden's raw, gritty vocals enhance the poignant storytelling at the heart of the song.
