Birmingham’s indie pop sensation, Eliza May, is back with her uplifting new single, “Got My Love.” The track is the first release from her highly anticipated third EP, set to drop on August 22, 2024. Known for her vibrant personality, colourful hair, and catchy tunes, Eliza continues to carve out a unique space in the indie pop scene. She brings a fresh and feel-good sound to her fans.
Inspired by her personal experiences, “Got My Love” is a heartfelt ode to the joys of moving in with a partner. Reflecting on the creation of the song, Eliza says, “Back in 2020, I moved in with my partner for the first time. Life instantly felt a million times better. My days felt sunnier and every moment was filled with laughter. I wanted to write a song that captured this feeling. I also aimed to create a wholesome, feel-good, sun-kissed summer vibe. That’s how ‘Got My Love’ came about.”
The track showcases Eliza’s ability to blend nostalgic summer vibes with contemporary indie pop elements. Drawing inspiration from artists like Cassia, Paramore, and Olivia Dean, “Got My Love” features laid-back drum grooves, smooth bass lines, and radiant guitar melodies. These are accompanied by intricately harmonious vocals. This combination creates an irresistibly catchy tune perfect for any summer playlist.
Eliza May has been a rising star. She has played at major festivals such as Y Not?, Godiva, and Pub in the Park. She has shared stages with big names like Kate Nash, Reverend and the Makers, and Tiffany. Her previous work includes the 2023 EP “Candy Heart.” This EP explored the highs and lows of love with influences from Paramore, Fickle Friends, and The Wombats. The EP was well-received, solidifying Eliza’s place in the indie pop world.
Her latest project sees her collaborating with producer Thomas Davies. He mixed and mastered the four-track collection. Eliza’s music has garnered support from prominent blogs and radio stations across the UK. These include BBC Introducing, Amazing Radio, GMTF Radio, and Music Crowns.
