RED BOW Records’ Brooke Eden Reveals New Single

RED BOW Records/BBR Music Group artist Brooke Eden released a new single “Diamonds” on Friday (Sept. 2). The song will be featured Monday on Tyler Perry’s TLC series, Too Close To Home. Eden also recorded the theme song for the show. “Diamonds” has also landed on Spotify’s “New Boots” playlist.

“I grew up in a small town. On the weekends we couldn’t necessarily have house parties because they would get shut down even before it started because of noise complaints. Instead, we would drive out to the woods and hang out using the headlights from our cars as lights. All the girls would get real dressed up and we’d listen to music and dance around in the headlights ‘shining like diamonds,’” says Eden, who co-wrote the song.
