Minneapolis renaissance woman Sophia Eris is encouraging everyone to “be their own Adele” on her new single “Feel The Burn.” Joining forces once again with super producers Lazerbeak (Doomtree, Lizzo, Dessa) and Bionik (Ice-T, Aceyalone, Far East Movement) for an uptempo club banger, Eris lays out the definitive workout plan to get you right just in time for summer. “Feel The Burn” channels that Jane Fonda workout tape you remember as a kid, and is as much West Coast G-Funk as it is a space age self-improvement anthem.
