Eyedress and the Marías reconnect on “A Room Up in the Sky”

Eyedress has been on a collaborative streak lately. After releasing a couple of songs with Mac DeMarco and “Separate Ways” featuring the Marías last month, he’s back with frontwoman Marìa Zardoya on another single called “A Room Up in the Sky.”

The song plays out like a bleary, sensual head rush that’s guided by velvety vocals and was made with Grammy-winning producer John Hill (SZA, Carly Rae Jepsen) at his studio in Venice earlier this year.

“Lyrically, I was talking about how my life changed for the better when I stopped doubting myself and really started believing in myself and my work,” Eyedress shares. “I realized I was subscribing to these negative thought patterns that didn’t serve me, and allowing myself to let go of that negativity really turned my life around and helped me become who I was meant to be.”

“It was so easy and seamless working on ‘Separate Ways’ together,” Zardoya adds. “Everything flowed perfectly, so when Eyedress approached us to work on ‘A Room Up in the Sky,” it was a no-brainer for us. It was just as seamless. We have a lot of similar tastes when it comes to tones and similar approaches when it comes to creating.”
