Following her critically acclaimed debut LP, ‘A Sky Without Stars’, British artist ELIZA follows up single, ‘Midnight Rose’.

Speaking about ‘Midnight Rose’, ELIZA says: “We made this song Midnight Rose whilst writing A Sky Without Stars but we didn’t finish it in time.

ELIZA has seen press support from NPR, i-D, CLASH, METAL Magazine, DUMMY, OkayPlayer, CRACK Magazine, and a plethora of others. After playing a run of sold-out record store shows in London to celebrate the vinyl release A Sky Without Stars on vinyl, ELIZA has featured on Grant Brydon’s podcast, ITV London News, and Radio Nova.
