INDYANA THE MOON IN THE MORNING

‘the moon in the morning’ is a haunting, ethereal release from Melbourne-based artist indyana. The track has slowly evolved from a soft lullaby written in her bedroom, into a powerfully emotional piece of cinematic folk, complete with a siren’s cry and a variety of intricately composed viola lines. It moves subtly from its soft opening moments into a thick-textured climax courtesy to indyana’s expert self-production. “I hope my track draws others’ attention to this great power of our moon,” she says, of the track’s purpose. “We are all 'navy babies' (children of the galaxy) but it is easy for us to get caught up in our earthling activities and forget to simply... exist. Allow this song to cast you into the depths of yourself; to let your emotions run wild like the rising and falling of the tide.” indyana is gearing up to drop her debut album, the navy baby, later on in the year. -Dan Peek
