Erika Severyns missed the bus to Belgium in 2018, when she was on a city trip to London. She had never felt rooted to begin with – as a young girl she had moved from Russia to Belgium and grown used to feeling torn between places. Her introspective songwriting and folky melodies help her navigate the space between drifting and getting lost.

‘Under My Feet’ is out!!! It took some guerrilla filmmaking to make this video clip happen. My brother Joelik and Jasmine spent most of the day holding table lamps in Lenny's basement for good lighting. But it’s here now and I’m super grateful for everyone involved! Karlien for coming up with the choreography and executing it, Lenny for directing, the montage, and making an idea into something tangible, and Jasmine and my brother for helping out during the shoot 😊 Loads of love, now go check out the end result!

‘Dust’ is out now and available literally everywhere!! You’ll find a link in bio ❤️ ⠀⠀ This EP has been hard work and not just for me. My dad spent literally half a year watching Youtube tutorials on how to record and produce my music, so that our kitchen setup would sound better than last year. Without him, this EP would never have made it past the voice memo stage. ⠀⠀ @phoebe__violet wrote ‘Dust’ with me and played the piano (and will also be playing with me tonight!). Kasper Van de Ponseele played the guitar and the banjo and is my favourite guitarist in the world. ⠀⠀ @laura.martens1 spent weeks working on my artwork and merch for the release show and @lionel_9000 took all the incredible photos laura and I used. ⠀⠀ So much love for all of you ❤️❤️❤️ ⠀⠀ #eprelease #outnow #dust #singersongwriter #folk #newmusic https://www.instagram.com/p/B55BsfspLRD/?igshid=1bvqut47bnkv1

Only one day left until the EP is out! I’m lowkey terrified for the release show because every possible worst case scenario has already crossed my mind but everyone involved and I have put heaps of work in to make it work, so I hope to see you all there and help make the night a success ❤️ meanwhile, pre-save the EP (link in bio)!! ⠀⠀ #eprelease #singersongwriter #dust #newmusic https://www.instagram.com/p/B53JAiIpsMK/?igshid=h825p9xwn2a3

Which reminds me - if you don’t have a ticket yet, the link is in bio and I would love to see you there ❤️ ⠀⠀ And @laura.martens1, I love you so much for all the work you’ve put into this, you have no idea ⠀⠀ #merch #artwork #eprelease #dust #singersongwriter #diymusician https://www.instagram.com/p/B5nm0bkJ-UO/?igshid=p9px2dmr3b17

The single ‘Dust’ is officially out now! It was co-written with @phoebe__violet (and she also did the piano part) ❤️ It’s a song about my brother and our move from Russia to Belgium. When we first arrived, neither of us spoke a lick of Dutch, so we basically only had each other. I didn’t mind, I thought it was pretty cool to have an older brother who was also my best friend. He probably didn’t appreciate the Zac Efron movie marathons as much as I did, though. ⠀⠀ You’ll find the link in bio, give it a listen and let me know what you think ⠀⠀ The cover art was done by @laura.martens1 , and @lionel_9000 took the pictures that you see throughout this Instagram and on my website and I love you guys for helping me out like that The rest of the EP will be out on 10 December! ⠀⠀ #single #dust #newmusic #singersongwriter #coverartist https://www.instagram.com/p/B5KSeyHpue5/?igshid=1j9q8uo4inzd5

Meet the other acts!! SWIPE —> ⠀⠀ @hels.grace is a Midlands born singer-songwriter with a deep love for country & folk music, who pairs slide guitar with catchy pop melodies. Her voice is amaaazing ⠀⠀ @sblackettrock will be doing spoken word. For her, it is a way to be completely transparent in a world where we try to be opaque. She has Asperger's, and has never been the best with words and for many years, was mute to how she felt about things. Poetry allows her to align what she wants to say, in a way that expresses her reality with greater clarity and communicates her soul. I heard her poetry at Pen Ting and it broke my heart. ⠀⠀ @kantisunflower is a singer-songwriter from Nepal, who writes dreamy, acoustic love songs. She also recorded her debut album on her iPhone and that’s just badass and inspirational af. ⠀⠀ It’s the first event I’ve taken upon myself to organise and I want it to be a celebration for the people that like my music and the ones who were involved in the process of making it. Please join me for a night of acoustic music, poetry, and some other nice stuff I’ve got planned. I will love you forever ⠀⠀ #dust #eprelease #singersongwriter #diymusician https://www.instagram.com/p/B5D5bhqpHeH/?igshid=1ldn057cc4xvi

*EP RELEASE SHOW!!!* ⠀⠀ So, as some of you will know, I’ve been working on a new EP called ‘Dust’ for quite a while. It’s a bit different from my other stuff and I’m excited and terrified for it to come out. The release date is on 10 December when I’m also having an EP RELEASE SHOW at the Hope&Anchor! I’m lining up amazing acts to play with me and it will just generally be a fun night filled with good vibes, sad songs, and probably some bad jokes on my part. I’d love to have you there ❤️ The ticket link is in my bio, you know what to do (and it’s not ignoring this post) ⠀⠀ #eprelease #bimmlondon #dust #hopeandanchor (at Hope and Anchor) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4NdhqzJx04/?igshid=1bhh0j3h9ijm8
