EEVAH - 'Promises'
Electro-Pop duo EEVAH shares sleek, retro-infused indie pop on ‘Promises'.
Opening on a slow burning, saturated instrumental ‘Promises’ chimes with affecting textures and emotion from the offset. EEVAH’s vocalist Nicole comes in wounded and vulnerable on the hard hitting and self examining lyric, “What have I done?” as EEVAH explores the theme of a toxic relationship and not knowing where you stand.
The conflicted emotions in the track’s lyrical theme serve as a catalyst towards change, seeing EEVAH refuse to be fed anymore bullshit, “I’m unbreaking all your promises, one by one”. Ultimately ‘Promises’ is an empowering and airy single, built on upbeat and shimmering retro indie pop tones and a radio-friendly vocal hook. ’Promises’ will fit in most nicely on your playlist alongside excellent contemporaries like HAIM, MUNA and Maggie Rogers.
