Eartheater

Genre: Alternative/Indie

Origin: United States

Eartheater distills a three-octave vocal range, experimental digital production and classical composition into works suspended between obsessively detailed sonic tapestries and almost recklessly gestural electronica. Her recorded output is enhanced by her viscerally emotive live performances that capture her fearless physical investment and gut-wrenching vocal sincerity.

Composed, produced, and arranged by Eartheater alone, her new album Phoenix: Flames Are Dew Upon My Skin draws a path back to the primordial lava lake from which she first emerged, as it also testifies to the reincarnating resurrections her project has undergone over its first full decade of existence. The result of a laborious revival in fire, Phoenix re-contextualizes Eartheater’s combinatorial approach to production within her most confident abstractions, adjacent to some of her most direct songs to date.

Eartheater made her debut in 2015, releasing twin albums on Hausu Mountain — Metalepsis and RIP Chrysalis — receiving widespread critical acclaim for her experimentation with pop paradigms. In 2018, Eartheater signed to experimental label PAN to release her third album, Irisiri, a shifting network of abstract songcraft laced with sudden structural upheavals and collisions of mutated tropes from numerous sonic vocabularies. Eartheater returned in 2019 with Trinity, a collaborative mixtape featuring producers like AceMo and Dadras. The same year she released a joint EP with LEYA titled Angel Lust.
