Olivia Vedder, daughter of Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder, has set out on her own with “Show Me the Truth,” her self-released solo single distributed by Thirty Tigers. Stream the track below.
The folk-pop track was co-written with Brian Fennell (aka SYML), whose production pushes her sing-song delivery to the forefront over stripped-back acoustic guitar and piano. Describing heartbreak, “Show Me the Truth” features melodramatic lyrics like, “I could die in your arms/ And I think that you knew/ If I’m wrong, play along, we could lie together.”
Pearl Jam fans may remember that Olivia contributed vocals to two songs on the soundtrack to Sean Penn’s 2021 film Flag Day: “My Father’s Daughter” and “There’s a Girl.” Eddie Vedder and Glen Hansard, who accompany her on “There’s a Girl,” co-wrote both tracks. The father-daughter duo went on to perform “My Father’s Daughter” together at his own Ohana Festival.
