Before she plays her SXSW set we talk to indie rock liberator IndigoDeSouza, who found 'incredible clarity' on upcoming third LP.
Among the discourse of ideas that could make the SXSW experience more amicable to artists, I’m having a difficult time imagining the top-down measure that will be able to accommodate Indigo De Souza’s anxiety at Austin crowd crush.
In the event that even the Trail at Lady Bird Lake is overrun by crypto bros, De Souza has an expressive escape hatch you and I don’t. At a time when so much indie rock is tethered to Earth by flat, affectless singing, the 25-year-old is gifted with a voice unafraid to wield wild emotionality toward out-of-body liberation.
“My earlier records were born out of angst and pain,” De Souza explains. “This new one is more focused, and in context that feels triumphant to me no matter where it actually goes emotionally. It came from an incredible clarity that I’d never had before.”
