Rising Brooklyn songwriter Eliza Edens celebrates the release of her sophomore record We’ll Become the Flowers at the Lilypad on Thursday, October 20th. Expect an evening of heartfelt songs brimming at the edges with effervescent lap steel, off-kilter grooves, and Edens signature dulcet voice. Special guest, Kaiti Jones, supports.
Born and raised in rural Massachusetts and currently living in Brooklyn, NY, Eliza Edens weaves together disparate influences of people and place into her work to create mesmerizing sonic tapestries with guitar and voice. With a love for tinkering with alternate tunings à la Nick Drake, a curious harmonic ear from years of childhood classical piano lessons, and an ever-expanding affinity for words and stories, Edens’ songs build a kaleidoscopic world that documents the parallels between hope and heartbreak. The resulting sound is a diverse palette of guitar-based, experimental folk-rock centered around Edens gently cradled voice and brimming at the edges with pockets of sonic whimsy. Edens is due to release her sophomore album We’ll Become the Flowers on October 14th.
