About the Artist
There’s a certain freedom in choosing yourself, in letting go of expectation, giving into temptation and rewriting the rules on your own terms. Continuing a bold new era of self-liberation and confidence, Boorloo/Perth-based artist EDIE has announced her new EP and unveiled the title track, ‘Garden of Edie’. Embracing an intoxicating fusion of electronic pop and dance in place of her pop-rock and indie roots, EDIE's sophomore EP will be released on Thursday, June 4.
Her last single ‘Fall of Man’ (released in March) offered only a glimpse of what lies ahead on this new path for EDIE. Controlled and restrained, it served as a gentle introduction, unfolding through slow-burning, atmospheric electronic textures.
Now, with ‘Garden of Edie’, she opens the gates to something far more immediate. With her signature bite, EDIE delivers a dark, club-ready sound, shaped by brooding synth textures, driving electronic beats and a restless, after-hours energy.
Partnering again with producer Calvin Bennet, EDIE doubles down on her pop instincts, layering glossy melodies and infectious hooks through sleek production. Dangling temptation just within reach, 'Garden of Edie' is seductive, testing and liberating, capturing the pull of indulgence, selfishness and the ecstasy of letting go. EDIE shares:
“This song is about letting go of the pressure and expectations that are put on you! I wanted to create a cathartic, feel-good, dance song about creating a world that doesn’t revolve around anyone but yourself. When I was writing it I was at a time in my life where I felt overwhelmed and confused about where I was going, so I decided to let go of that feeling and instead focus on all the good in my life!”
