With an openness that feels singular, Indigo De Souza sings of heartbreak that feels beyond reason, of love that defies all odds, of unabashedly living in truth, speaking up for yourself, protecting your energy, of being afraid of the world but facing it anyway.
I wrote “Heartthrob” as a way to help process something that is often hard to talk about—the harmful ways I’ve been taken advantage of in my physical memory. ‘Heartthrob’ is about harnessing anger, and turning it into something powerful and embodied. It’s about taking back my body and my experience. It’s a big fuck you to the abusers of the world. A sarcastic, angry cry for all bodies that have ever been touched in harmful ways. Big thanks Elliott Kozel for making this music with me and showing up every day as a friend and collaborator. Thank you Jesse Schuster, Jonathon Smith and Landon George for playing on this song. Ya’ll are sweeties. Thank you Neta Ben Ezra and Seth Dunlap and the whole team and all our lovely actors for bringing this music video to life. I had so much fun goofin around with everyone.
‘Precipice’ takes the unafraid self-expression that has already earned Indigo an army of devoted fans and backs it up with deeper explorations of melody and pop influence without ever sacrificing depth or intention.
“I feel constantly on the precipice, of something horrible, or something beautiful–something that will change my life for better or for worse. This is about change, and how we can accept it, or push it away, but it is always there, carrying us in some direction, and cannot be stopped.” — Indigo De Souza
