Eva Lazarus is best known for the expert navigation of musical moods through her larger-than-life vocals. The R&B songstress now returns with her delectable new offering ‘How Am I Looking?’. Produced by Dirty Dike (Rag N Bone Man, Ocean Wisdom), the track is a self-love and self-care anthem that combines empowering lyrics with a soothing soundscape.
Eva shares the meaning behind the track:
“How am I looking is a love letter to my hair, self love and self care. The process, the feeling, the cost and the pride of it all.”
‘How Am I Looking?’ also arrives with an official music video. The stunning visualizer captures the essence of the track perfectly as it takes us through Eva’s nurturing routine.
Eva certainly finds joy in dexterity, spontaneity, and experimentation. She just never felt satisfied expressing herself via any one single genre. Shifting the momentum when a crowd or session demands it is the precise sweet spot in which she thrives, and while the results are often kaleidoscopic (and completely delicious when plated up correctly), Eva recognises the need for continuity when delivering entire album works. Subsequently, she is entering into a new chapter on her creative quest, one driven by career-defining sounds.
“I’m pushing outwards and upwards, musically we’re taking up more space,” Eva adds.
ABOUT EVA LAZARUS
Growing up in a house full of music lay the grounding for Eva to become the artist she is today. It gifted her a deeply emotional connection to how different genres make her think and feel and set her on a life-long path of discovery. The most recent chapter in her songwriting canon feels like something of a homecoming because it hones in on key pillars of her musical upbringing. The result is a wave she has wanted to create ever since those seminal sounds filled her family home.
Starting with voice and guitar, before expanding through breaks, samples, orchestras and beyond, Eva stands at a wonderful crossroads; calling upon everything she has learnt across genres when distilling a new sound that is her most stylistically acute to date.
Her new single follows on from her 2019 collaborative album with reggae/dancehall production Mungo’s Hi Fi, which attracted more than 10 million listeners on Spotify.
