Eddie Vedder released a new single, Matter Of Time, along with a new version of Say Hi, on all digital platforms and and on pre-order 7’’ at pearljam.com.
Eddie Vedder’s new single Matter Of Time (plus new version of Say Hi from the EBRP: Venture Into Cures virtual event) is now available for streaming and purchase on all platforms. A limited 7’’ vinyl is also available to pre-order now at pearljam.com.
Both songs, written and recorded by Ed Vedder himself, are inspired by stories of individuals and families living with Epidermolysis Bullosa. Say Hi is written for Eli Meyer, a brave 6-year-old afflicted with Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa. The song is inspired by the #ComeSayHi movement, an initiative started by Eli’s siblings to “Come Say Hi” to Eli to learn about EB. To help fund research aimed at treating and curing EB, please donate to the EB Research Partnership.
Matter Of Time and Say Hi lyrics are available here.
Venture Into Cures performance and the official Matter Of Time animated music video, directed by Matt Finlin and Jeff Lemire, can be found on YouTube.
