News: Indyana Releases Captivating, Cinematic Debut Album The Navy Baby


Australian singer-songwriter indyana releases the spellbinding, otherworldly debut album, the navy baby.

Jumping between genres, from moments of expansive, ethereal brilliance, to others of organic, textural subtlety, the album is a wondrous journey into indyana’s radiant creative spirit. Tied together by the soaring vocals, which display the stunning vocal range indyana poses, the project beings beautiful soundscapes which move between moments of orchestral and electronic bliss, and others of folk influenced melancholy.

Thematically, the navy baby plunges listeners into a transcendent exploration of existence, mortality, and the eternal dance between life and death. Cosmic and rich with evocative emotion and sonic depth, the album carries a giant, cinematic quality through it’s spotless production and celestial harmonies. Each track reveals a universe of complex, sometimes haunting, reflections on what it means to be human.

Talking about the album, indyana explains: “I, and many people in my life, struggle to accept the inevitability of death due to the fact that life itself feels so vivid and everlasting. How could it simply end? Just like that? There have been days where I let my fear tip me over into a state of deep, terrible panic. Contrasting this, there have also been days during which I decided to courageously exist in spite of my mortality because… why would I choose suffering when I could choose joy?

Despite humankind’s inability to fully grasp the concept of death, we must audaciously embrace it at one point or another. And, even as I continue to flicker between a state of peace and fear, creating ‘the navy baby’ was like creating a coping mechanism in order to help me reach my end goal, which is to be accepting of every phase of life, transforming fearlessly from one form to the next.”
