Exuding infinite, dreamy and artistically defining hues, Indiana Williams is welcomed as one of Australia’s distinct emerging artists, born in Melbourne with African American heritage. Iconically recording with nothing other than voice memos and chord samples on an iPad, the bold yet mysterious musical air from Indiana is infectious.
Cutting his teeth on R&B, dream-pop and ethereal highs at the beginning of 2020, Indiana’s debut single ‘Picture This’ devoured an infatuation with love and the pursuit of romance through the medium of social media, where his journey began. Attracting over 80,000 streams and procuring curious fans from his home town to the streets of Moscow and Sao Paulo, the world has most definitely had a taste of the path paved ahead for Indiana. The hooking first single dripped with influences from his sonic depiction of ‘digital heartbreak’, inviting the follow up ‘One-Sided Love’, a piece of work that hails a darker tone, emotive depths and beautifully crafted knack for storytelling, through music.
Notable with Australia’s inaugural triple j Unearthed, influential playlist curators and the avant garde of fan circles, Indiana Williams is this new decade’s singer and songwriter to watch, with an air of musical creativity and entirely relatable, yet introspective lyricism.
