So hey, it turns out Lorde has a younger sister (not terribly shocking) and she’s a published poet (also not too shocking), and today she’s released her debut song and it’s pretty great (not shocking at all). She goes here by Indy, and the artist born Indy Yelich O’Connor is making a lovely intro into our hearts n’ playlists with “Threads,” a casual alt-pop romp that has echoes of her famous sibling and some Bleachers vibes mixed in. The track dropped with a visualizer via TMWRK Records, and it sure feels like the start of something for the New Zealand native who now calls New York home after a brief pitstop in Los Angeles.

“‘Threads’ is about the fear of letting a relationship consume me,” says Indy. “I wrote this song when I was going through a very on-off relationship for years. When I think of this song I think of a passionate argument, miscommunication, the excitement of New York City night life. A toxic, messy love affair. Flashbacks of the moments shared together vs. being out surrounded by friends, always caught in between. This song is so special to me as it depicts what being in love at 23 feels like; chaotic, hopeful, passionate.”

The press release that accompanies this new declares that “more from Indy is imminent,” and we have zero doubt. Dive in below.
