With her delicate vocal and whimsical self-produced tracks, K-indie solo artist eero (이로) is blazing her trail in the music space. In July 2024, the singer just released her debut EP Inner Search. The EP is supported by its title track, the youthful summer tune 20 Again. The song and music video evoke the freshness of a summer vacation and the heart-fluttering feeling of being 20 again.
Prior to her official debut, eero shared her music on SoundCloud. Her self produced songs showcase her distinctive wispy voice that perfectly suits her lo-fi, mid-tempo chill pop. A self-described R&B and soul musician, eero’s sound belongs to the specific K-indie scene that includes artists such as heize, Cheeze and BOL4. In other words, it’s female-led bubblegum pop with a touch of youthful nostalgia and sweet romanticism. You can almost imagine her songs being the soundtrack to K-drama rom coms.
Aside from her EP, you can have a taste of eero’s beautiful musicality through her Soundcloud discography, which already displays a mature and clear-eyed artistry for a newbie musician. 1분이라도, Go! 슴도치, and 사랑의 이유 are some of the songs you don’t wanna miss. Listening to her music, you can’t help but think about a chill drive alongside a beautiful coastline on a sunny day. It’s really promising and we cannot wait to see her career flourish from here on out.
Here’s 3 songs we love from eero:
1. 20 Again
20 again The unfamiliar time
20 again By the time I get used to it, it’s gone far, far away, teach me about the past year
2. Stay
Slowly pass me by
If I can’t stay
So that it can only be good as it is
I can’t ask for more
3. Cloud Nine
I’m on cloud nine
Feel like I found mine
