Music News - Emily Edrosa of Street Chant debut solo EP streaming today
15 October 2014 - 0 Comments
The solo vehicle of one third of Auckland heavy pop trio Street Chant, Emily Edrosa is a musical project borne of a variety of necessities and limitations. Having returned to Auckland following an American Street Chant tour, and with a view to recording their second album on various equipment's acquired along the way, the eponymous Edrosa found herself facing the dual burdens of an unfamiliarity with her new gear and an unfortunately timed incidence of writers’ block. Seeking to kill two birds, she decided to focus her energies on a singular concept, the idea being that writing a body of work within strict time and subject constraints would allow her both to clear the creative hurdle and to hone her engineering abilities.
The result is the Emily Edrosa EP, six songs about how life, death and the various spaces between are communicated and occupied and experienced through the all-pervasive lens of the internet, songs for the most part a great deal quieter and more folk-influenced than her previous work, an exercise in self-limitation, in self-development and in trying not to annoy her mother (keen EE listeners will hear Edrosa senior expressing her thoughts about the process towards the end of Edrosy).
With first single Animal already very well received and with a video on the way, and second single Corner of the Party soon to be released, the future for Edrosa is a blank canvas, but doubtless a very bright one. This Southern Hemisphere summer holds the project’s first live shows with a full band, beginning with a show celebrating the EP’s release at prominent Auckland advertising industry haunt The Golden Dawn on October 24th and soon to be followed by others across Tāmaki Makaurau and quite possibly Aotearoa; like and follow and engage with and enjoy and variously disseminate all Edrosa-related content for information as it’s released – you may slowly develop an internet psychosis, but it’ll make a great story one day.
EP is streaming exclusively at Noisy Australia right now
