about

“The Tide is Changing felt like the perfect name for this E.P as it feels like my 1st proper E.P although it is my 3rd. Calling it 'The Tide is Changing' feels like a commitment to myself & my music so The Tide is Changing because I am changing. And it feels exciting to not know what's next but to believe it is good.”

With three tracks rich with a throwback R&B feel, this EP will have you vibing throughout lockdown life and beyond. Ione speaks on the nature of love, loneliness and facing the truth in one of the most lyrically honest, direct and open inclined EP exploding onto the scene right now. The title track ‘The Tide Is Changing’ kicks off this beautiful body of work with a bang. Produced by David Blazer, this track contorts traditions of R&B and lo-fi to sculpt a stunning soundscape which Ione’s vibrant vocals sail over with ease. The concluding track ‘Run Away’ shows the subtler side of Ione’s musical persona, allowing an intimate and vocally intricate performance to leave us wanting more. ‘The Tide Is Changing’ is being released at a perfect time to bring some groove to our lockdown lives. So, TODAY let Ione set the tone with her most fully realised body of work to date, ‘The Tide Is Changing’.
