About the band:
Recently back from an 8 year haul in LA, Eden Iris is a songwriter/performer who has been described as “an artist in tune with the roaming troubadour wordsmiths of old” (Aldora Britain Records). Moving to the states at twenty years-old with just a suitcase and a guitar, Eden’s music has taken her to cities such as Nashville, Austin, and New Orleans to write and perform. Eden has been a supporting act for artists such as Tami Neilson, Troy Kingi (New Orleans, FAI Festival 2020), and Unknown Mortal Orchestra (LA, You Are Us Concert 2019) and has been featured in Billboard and American Songwriter Magazine.
Kim Halliday's musical experiences have been strewn across the globe over the past 30 years. Her teachers include Robert Fripp (voted best guitarist in the world 3 years running in Guitar Player Mag), and Nigel Gavin. Kim has toured the globe extensively, performing in major festivals around the world with her trio Pacific Curls. She has been involved in over 15 bands and 40 recorded works.
Sarah Charlie Rose is a composer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist originally from Kirikiriroa who now resides in Tāmaki Makaurau. Currently, Sarah is focused on developing her own projects with the release of her duo Little Weird’s debut Ep in 2022 and their next Ep out later this year which was co-written and developed with Age Pryor.

Eden Iris Biography
Eden Iris is an artist from Auckland, New Zealand who has been described as “an artist working in a new space” (Jordan Luck, Exponents). She moved to Los Angeles, California when she was nineteen years-old to pursue her music career and has since made a home for herself on the west coast. In Los Angeles, Eden has collaborated with esteemed songwriters such as Maia Sharp (Dixie Chicks), Jamie Candiloro (REM, Ryan Adams) and Bruce Lynch (Kate Bush). Recently she was awarded the Folk/Acoustic Act of the year (2020) by UK based radio-station Radio Wigwam.
Working out of her home studio in Burbank, California, not a day that goes by that Eden isn’t writing, recording, or producing. Her Demons EP (2018) was described as “soul stirring, beautifully arranged and poignantly observed…” by Mike Alexander (Sunday Star Times) and received radio-play on Los Angeles Station 88.5 KCSN, along with five of her other singles (two of them being featured as “Fresh Squeeze of the Day” By DJ Nic Harcourt).
In 2019, the haunting folk/electronica song “Dark Sunday Dream” found it’s cult following after being picked up by indie-folk playlist Alex Rainbird, with over half a million subscribers on Youtube. “Dark Sunday Dream” has also had regular rotation on Radio Paradise and has received critical acclaim by indie-folk blogs around the world. Eden’s single “Worse Things” (November 2019) which was co-written with Maia Sharp, premiered with Billboard and American Songwriter Magazine.
