The Death Of Me is the fourth single from Chords Of Indigo, streaming everywhere from the 29th September.

Have you ever been through a break-up that felt like getting your (figurative) head blown off? The Death Of Me tells the story of a gut-wrenching separation, re-imagined within a metaphor of a macabre murder; a haunting torment of a failed relationship. Where would we be without our sad songs steeped in heartache?

The reverb-soaked guitars that are the foundation of the track recall Jeff Buckley’s emotive tones, whilst the eventual swelling strings and percussive piano paint the track with dramatic chamber pop colour. Building, bombastic drums and fills bring the song to its heightened climax. Chords of Indigo’s impassioned vocals ensure the melodrama gets fully realised.

Written, recorded and produced entirely independently in his South Manchester studio/spare bedroom, The Death Of Me adds another unique sound to Chords Of Indigo’s output that doesn’t stick to the usual indie-rock playbook.

I Will Let It (Go) is the fifth release of 2023 from singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Chords Of Indigo. Streaming everywhere from the 3rd November.

An indie-pop confessional about late-night / early-morning missteps, and the emotional whiplash that follows.

Built around an ever-present bright and folksy acoustic guitar, the song builds into an ethereal, funky crescendo of bass, bubbling synth-work and layered vocal harmonies that takes cues from The Smiths, The 1975 and even alt-pop-rockers Coheed and Cambria.

Written, recorded and produced entirely independently in his South Manchester studio/spare bedroom, I Will Let It (Go) adds yet another unique flavour to Chords Of Indigo’s output.

"Follow Me To Heaven" by Chords Of Indigo, their sixth single of 2023, drops on all streaming platforms on December 8th.

The new single is a heady rock anthem with an injection of indie/alternative qualities that shares sonic similarities with tracks from artists in the vein of Beady Eye, City and Colour, and Band Of Horses.

The song delves into a profound exploration of lost faith in the face of the world's darkness; the cruelties men commit in the name of religion, as well as the deeply-felt personal disappointments and contradictions. "Follow Me To Heaven" takes the form of an imagined, heated conversation between a disillusioned human and an idealistic deity, igniting thought-provoking and soul-stirring reflections.

Set amongst soaring guitars and potent rock vocals, it's a drivingly powerful, emotionally charged experience that maintains an uplifting, angry energy balanced against a bittersweet musical undertone throughout.

The Other Way

“The Evil” introduces the dark presence at the heart of a five-track concept EP - a force of love, guilt, and ruin that may be pursuing our spectral protagonist Evelyn… or possessing her. Blending raw vocals with soaring alt-rock guitars, it sets the tone for a modern myth.
