US Album Release Shows + UMS Festival Appearance Coming Soon
Denver, Colorado based Isadora Eden is pleased to reveal the video for her new single ‘Mirror’, which is released on 30th June 2023.
The track is the final single to be taken from her forthcoming debut album forget what makes it glow, set for release on 14th July 2023.
Commenting on the track, Eden says: “‘Mirror’ is about how you can do a lot of things and change a lot about yourself, but you're still you after all of it and have to accept that. For better or worse, there are parts of yourself you can't really get rid of. This is one of the more sunny, upbeat songs on the record."
"'Mirror' started as a different song with slightly different chords and lyrics—we loved parts of it but it wasn't really coming together. We played through and reworked the original song into this new one together, and love how it came out—especially the super warm intro acoustic line, The Cure-inspired chimes and the Tom Petty-esque chorus chords. The intro voice memo is Sumner (Erhard, drums) falling down a hill on the beach while visiting my family in Massachusetts.”
The single comes with an official video that Eden describes as “a campy horror short”, directed by Michael Everett. “I love the zombie-snap on the 'wanna be cool but I care what you think' lyric, the explosion scene (shot on our TV table!), and just the general silliness and fun of this one,” she says of the visuals.
‘Mirror’ follows on from early singles ‘Haunted’, ‘Still’ and ‘bloodymary’, which picked up support from UK tastemakers DIY, Noizze, Analogue Trash, Colorising and more, and saw Eden land on Spotify’s Fresh Finds playlist.
Recorded, produced and mixed by Corey Coffman (Gleemer, Soft Blue Shimmer, Modern Colour) in Loveland, CO and mastered by Edsel Holden (Hovvdy, Katy Kirby), debut album forget what makes it glow also features bandmate Sumner Erhard on drums, percussion, and bass.

More info:
Combining dark, introspective lyrics with lush vocals and complex multi-layered textures of sound, Isadora Eden is an Easter Sunday-turned-horror movie. Mixing elements of indie rock, shoegaze, and gothic folk, her music boldly blends genres to make what she and Erhard affectionately call ‘fuzz folk’.
A self-described “sad slowcore” addict, Eden lists The Cure, Tomberlin, Elliott Smith, Frightened Rabbit and Soccer Mommy as just some of her many muses.
This is music for walking home alone after a party to; doom scrolling ‘til the sun comes up, and then driving around your abandoned hometown pretending that, this time, you’re actually going to call your high school best friend. This feeling manifests across 11 tracks on Eden’s new LP titled forget what makes it glow, evoking real life horror as it channels not-so-great memories of religion, nostalgia, love and loss.
First making a name for herself in Denver, early tastemakers across the US are now quickly cottoning-on to her sound, leading to support from NPR, Westword, Obscure Sound, Ear To The Ground, Bandwagon Magazine, 303 Magazine (Denver Musicians To Watch 2021), Various Small Flames, The Revue and many more.
