April 26, 2024 BY Emma Orland

Today, IDER return with pulsating electropop anthem “Girl” out via Nettwerk Music Group. The single is accompanied by the announcement of their first London headline show since 2022.

The British duo, made up of Megan Markwick and Lily Somerville, have created an irresistible call to arms that serves as an expression of femininity, independence and the unshackling of social pressures. Combining their signature style of lyricism with refreshingly ambitious production, IDER are returning bigger, bolder and better than ever.

Discussing their new single ‘Girl’ IDER add:

“Girl is a celebration of our inner wolves and the many different faces of femininity – soft, powerful, gentle and fierce, compassionate, destructive, demonic and divine. 

“It sums up the feeling of freedom when you’re moving with your favourite people, and you don’t care what anyone else thinks.” IDER.

IDER have also announced their first London headline show since 2022 on 23rd May 2024 at The Lower Third (tickets on sale 30th April).

IDER are the London based alt-pop duo Megan Markwick and Lily Somerville. Previously described as “pop auteurs” and “voices of a generation”, the band came to prominence with the release of their critically acclaimed debut album “Emotional Education”; celebrated for its bold and unflinching lyrics around anxiety, identity, mental health and the human condition. Their 2021 follow up record saw the band take ownership of their process, self-producing and self-releasing the deeply personal “Shame”. Now signed to Nettwerk, the band are set to return with their most exciting and confident music to date.
