Colchester’s Edenflaw are back with their latest single ‘What a Day’. The release is an impactful ode to the power of being present and celebrating life’s unforgettable moments. The trio have crafted a track that combines a nostalgic feel with a fresh outlook, blending emotive rock with catchy pop-infused hooks. Creating an evocative record that ignites the impulse to head bang and air guitar along, in just the same way as the greats that have influenced them- legends like Pearl Jam, Incubus and U2, to name a few.
Recorded DIY-style in Traveller’s studio, ‘What a Day’ captures the spirit of classic rock with a modern twist. The chorus, “What a day to be alive,” is a simple yet powerful refrain that urges listeners to pause and take in the fleeting beauty of life, especially when shared with those who matter most. The track delves into the changing nature of time, reflecting on how the years can slip by, but those golden moments remain as vivid as ever- a snapshot of joy and connection.
The band’s video for ‘What a Day’ brings this theme to life with a classic road trip setup, featuring the trio cruising in an American vintage car, capturing the thrill of an open road, the right music, and the perfect company. It rings of Americana, and the hazy light creates a dreamy feel. It’s almost as if this is the memory that’s being remembered, a moment that won’t be forgotten.
Edenflaw continue to carve out a unique space in the indie-rock scene, blending reflective lyrics with anthemic energy, making ‘What a Day’ a must-listen for anyone who values the art of savouring life’s moments. This track is a testament to the band’s evolution, offering a glimpse into the joy and nostalgia that they channel so effortlessly.
