Ederlezi consists of two artists who each have a busy career of their own as well. David Page a guitarist/bass player/singer and collaborator with people like Jonathan Jeremiah, Young Gun Silver Fox and Edwyn Collins. Hannah Nicholson worked with Ellie Goulding, Gary Barlow and Heather Small, and even performed as a backing singer and instrumentalist at Prince William’s wedding.

Together, they’re a London-based duo, who live aboard their beloved Dutch barge Ederlezi. Cruising the river Thames, the boat is not only their home, but also the place where they write, produce and record the music that’ll eventually end up on their debut album. The vessel became the duo’s muse, and also gave them their stage name.

The band take their inspiration from many places. Think of influences like Scott Walker, Jackson Browne and Joni Mitchell, or the guitar-based rock ‘n’ roll of the ‘50s and the psychedelic ‘60s. Personally, I also hear Johnny Cash, and when I close my eyes I see spaghetti westerns and Quentin Tarantino movies.

Run, Run, Run is Ederlezi’s debut single. Nicholson says about it: “This song was written right at the start of the pandemic. We found ourselves unexpectedly in a suspended time away from our usual busy touring lives. From this out came the song, speaking of addiction, desire, temptation and the human condition”
