“LIKE ME”

Hailing from Adelaide, but blasting on radios world-wide, Indy Stanton is set to make her mark again with her newest single “Like Me.” The track is a fun filled pop ballad ready to make you dance out that heart break. Since her grand entrance into the music scene in 2019 with her debut album, The Candle Room, Indy has been captivating audiences with her witty lyrics and unique melodies.
“This song is something really new for me. I had an ex who told me I was a total psychopath; and I believed it,” said Indy. “After we had broken up and I started dating again, I kept hearing her voice in my head telling me I was crazy and too messed up to be dating anyone. Suddenly, I had the idea that I needed to ‘warn’ anyone who was interested in me. I had to give them a total breakdown of what they would be signing up for.
I finally came to the conclusion that I wasn’t necessarily crazy, I was just reacting to a really wild situation. I’ve dated since then and I’ve come to see that I am okay, it was just a really unhealthy relationship – but it was kinda fun and cathartic to describe myself from her point of view, and that’s what I’ve done with this song. It’s also a super empowering feeling to use phrases that she’s used and no longer believe them when I hear them.”
Shaped by an unhealthy relationship and the self perception and awareness it had given Indy, “Like Me” is a testimonial to the warnings she would give to new lovers of her ‘psychotic’ persona. Growing out of the idea that she was the integrator, but more the victim of a wild situation, “Like Me” is giving Indy Stanton liberation and empowerment, putting it in the past tense.

Sonically, “Like Me” is certainly more pop than Indy has done before. Working with an infamously pop focussed producer Sam Morrison (aka Supanever) posed the perfect opportunity for Stanton to explore a different sound. “I was really impressed with Indy’s previous work, but wanted to take her music in a new direction,” said Supanever. “I wanted to take her pop style vocal, and bring some grit and dirt to her production, giving the song some rough edges. Influenced by producers like Diplo, Flume and Mura Masa, I wanted to make a song that could lie comfortably between the underground and the mainstream.”
“The songs influences are definitely a bit more “pop” to what I’ve released in the past. I had the awesome opportunity to work with a producer who had a bit of a different sound, and he really took this song to the next level,” said Indy. “I was definitely inspired by Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande but also, I’ve been really getting into Little Mix lately, and a lot of the millennial hits from my childhood so really the sound is just a total mix and mash of me as an artist and I love it.”
Indy Stanton began her music career when she started songwriting in high school and posting covers on Youtube, and by the age of only 15 had already developed a crowd of adoring fans. She first broke out onto the scene in 2018 with her debut album, The Candle Room.
After a small hiatus to focus on study, she became eager to start recording some of the music that she had written. Her work was heard by Eslev (producer at Attaboye Records), who quickly became eager to work with her full-time to record her latest single “Small Talk” and produce her 2019 album The Candle Room. Indy has since been developing her craft and collecting the streams on her debut album, which has its focus single “It’s Ok to Say Goodbye” sitting almost at 80,000 streams.
Now, at just 25 years old, Indy Stanton is already recording her second album, which is sure to captivate audiences; with her witty lyrics and unique melodies.
“Like Me” is available on all platforms now.
