North London’s Eaves Wilder unveils euphoric new single ‘Mountain Sized’, the latest offering from the forthcoming debut album, Little Miss Sunshine, to be released April 17 via Secretly Canadian.

The transcendent new track transforms a crisis of purpose into an explosive sense of release. Suspended in uncertainty about who she was and where she was headed, Eaves longed to be unhuman, unfeeling and unmoved. A mountain. A tree. The sky. Things that simply are, unquestioning in their existence, assured of their place in the world. Meanwhile, Eaves was still searching for hers – especially when it came to music. 

So she did the only thing she could do, go back to the start, to one of the first songs she ever loved, Lily Allen’s 2009 single ‘The Fear’. “It’s just one woman casually listing all the worst things about herself, the kind of stuff you should be way too embarrassed to admit”. For Eavie, it was a case of “going even further, to come across as shallow and unlikeable as possible. It was like a last roll of the dice.”

On ‘Mountain Sized’, fomenting anxiety is obliterated by a panoramic chorus which sees Eaves smash through the membrane of her real-world restrictions in order to declare: “In my mind / But in my mind / I am taller than the highest mountain sides.” With soft, intimate vocals backed by soaring guitar lines, Eaves crafts a sound of tenderness and power, sweetness and strength, radiating divine feminine energy.
