"The video is a representation of the self, alone and vulnerable in a dark void," she said. "'Information' is a breakup song; it's about not understanding the situation. With social networks these days, everyone needs to know everything, all the time. But the
problem is, people are so used to short snippets of information that no one has any attention span any more. I don't, anyway. It's about a quest to know everything."<o:p></o:p></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
Eliot’s new EP<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b><i>Information</i></b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>is coming from a renewed sense of focus and clarity. While its three tracks still bear the hallmarks of I Blame Coco’s output, there
are some more surprising influences on there too, from her favorite band as a teenager, the Bad Seeds, to even more obscure sounds.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<o:p> </o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
The lead track,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>“Information,”</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>is a six-minute synth-and-strings song that plays out with a long, confident instrumental passage. “It’s a break-up song,” Eliot explains.
“It’s about not understanding the situation. With social networks these days, everyone needs to know everything, all the time. It’s about a quest to know everything. We recorded it in one take, so it’s nice to have that on the album.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<o:p> </o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<b>“Come Friday</b>,<b>”</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>on the other hand, is a more guitar-driven track with an anthemic chorus, but again, its shiny, soaring melodies disguise a darker subject matter. “That’s one of my favorites, but it’s
not a very happy song. It’s about still being in love with someone but not allowing them to have another life.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<o:p> </o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
Then there’s<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>“Wobbler</b>,<b>”<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>a menacing, dirgey waltz, which Eliot wrote while travelling. It tells the story of a person who “kills people, ex-lovers, out of joy,”
she explains with a smile, “Murder Ballads is one of my favorite albums.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<o:p> </o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
After releasing <b><i>The Constant</i></b> in 2010 under the moniker<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>I Blame Coco</b>, Eliot toured for two years, playing headlining shows and festivals all over the world. Since then, she’s experimented with different
writing methods – and even spent time working with Clint Mansell on a film score! - and took time to simply grow. She says, “It’s now or never. I’m proud of the music I’m making and it’s time to take ownership by putting my real name on it.”<o:p></o:p></div>
