HELADOS is a collection of songs about summer nostalgia, half-remembered events, and memories of hazy days were the theme. This was originally supposed to be released before Endless Stars but was slower to come together.

HELADOS, 826, Brighter Life, Emerald Shoulders, Ever, and Botanicals were all sketches written in January 2025. Saudade, Summer Gleam, Around the Yard, Avec, and Lay Me Down were all written between March and May of 2025.
