14 year-old — yeah, 14! — Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter Edie Yvonne wrote her full-length debut At Ease in her room during pandemic-related quarantines. The young artist has shared three singles off the album so far, “On Your Mind,” “In the Rain,” and the album’s latest single “Random Boy,” which were released earlier this year.
Built around a singer/songwriter pop arrangement of strummed acoustic guitar, boom bap-like drums and a mischievously jaunty hook, “Random Boy” simultaneously reveals a young artist with a self-assuredness beyond her relative youth while being a tell off/reminder to not deal with fuckbois, bullies and other assorted dummies with the awareness that they’d be terrible for her.
