Eva Eden

About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

“I feel like a sea-monkey now, cried the voice in its own tongue.”

Ebbing through London with her hot air balloon…

Comes a voice from a songstress with songs for the moon.

Enticing with fairytales and musical games,

The Insects collide with the flare of her flames.

A Pragian princess made of laughter and play,

Taking hurdy-gurdy to metropolis, a harp to the grey,

& Infusing her wit with electronics, guitar,

Into haunting soundscapes or a cable train car,

On a journey through the forgotten with her electronic plough.

Born in Czech Paradise, Eva Eden grew up with a fondness of artefacts from forgotten times, the weird & wonderful world of tall tales & rhymes and she started to make music from an early age. Spending most of her formative years in the golden baroque city of Prague she came to London for the fusion of cultures, the clashing of sounds,

the tectonic shifts in recent times. Encapsulated by epic stories of skylarks, cable train rides and how the sea-life feels, we are put in lands and places many of us have never been.

Eva Eden is at the vanguard of London's popular music scene, on the waves of the radio, at the depths of its stream. Patrick Wolf's single ‘Accident and Emergency' features a cover of her track ‘Underworld' as a B-side. She's also taken the stage at the London's Scala, ICA and Luminaire and the radio waves care of Steve Lamacq (Radio One).

New single "Underworld" now available on iTunes.
