Indigo De Souza – Be Like Water
Today, Indigo De Souza shares the single “Be Like The Water” from her forthcoming album, Precipice.
The song, full of percussion and dazzling production, is a cathartic self-dialogue. “Be like the water is about being brave and protecting your energy,” says De Souza. “It’s about listening to your inner self and respecting your gut instinct. My favorite lyric in the song is ‘you can leave if you want to, and you don’t have to say why.’ Whether it’s leaving the room, leaving the conversation, or leaving a toxic relationship, you have the power to make a change and life is too precious to waste your spirit.”
The album, due July 25th on Loma Vista Recordings, was made with Elliott Kozel, a musician who has produced and collaborated with the likes of SZA, Yves Tumor and FINNEAS. It finds the prolific and poetic singer-songwriter looking over the edge of a creative and spiritual cliff and leaping forward—taking control of difficult memories and charged emotions via pop bombast and diaristic clarity, and finding a stronger self.
This Friday, De Souza will kick off a brief run of US headline dates plus three nights with Lord Huron. Major North America touring in support of Precipice is plotted for the fall, plus festival appearances at Bumbershoot and Pitchfork Paris and London. De Souza is partnering with PLUS1 and The Trevor Project on the upcoming fall tour. A dollar of each ticket sold will directly support The Trevor Project’s mission to end suicide among LGBTQ+ youth by providing life-saving and life-affirming resources, including 24/7 crisis intervention services, peer support, and advocacy for inclusive policies.
