Vocals & Lyrics by Me
- another blow to the heart again
- why do I do this to myself
- swimming up stream to get some air
- sometimes I wish I would just choke
- yearning for dreamscapes it isn’t fair
- I don’t know what is real
- the more I reach out, seems nothings there
- but still it won’t conclude 

- the minutes the moments, the seconds go by
- it’s still living rent free in my mind
- I drown it all out, pouring into myself
- I love me but I’m so fucking lonley 

- But why was it you
- And not someone else
- I’m dragging my feet
- through some made up hell
- I wish I could speak to my past self
- And tell her to never hit you up again

- new faces come by but I compare
- them to what I saw in you
- trying to fit a circle with a square
- it will never make a two

- the minutes the moments, the seconds go by
- it’s still living rent free in my mind
- I drown it all out, pouring into myself
- I love me but I’m so fucking lonley 

- But why was it you
- And not someone else
- I’m dragging my feet
- through some made up hell
- I wish I could speak to my past self
- And tell her to never hit you up again

- just drown it all out
- I'm just drowning it out
- just drown it all out
- I'm just drowning it out
- just drown it all out
- I'm just drowning it out

Lost Girl

An ep I've been making ig I've just been making music to deal with my life. I love making it don't get me wrong, it's probably the only thing that helps me feel in a way. I'm rambling but enjoy I put a lot of effort.

YOU SURE?

Verse
I must confess my sun-kissed angel
I haven't seen the sunshine in quite some time
If there's a hell on Earth
I'm living in it now

Verse
And it's been hard to sleep without you
It's been hard to breathe without you
You don't know how many nights I lie awake
Staring at the ceiling

Chorus
But mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word

Verse
And I've been missing you more than ever
I've been missing you more than ever
I've been missing you more than ever
But you're better where you are

Verse
And sometimes I get so lost in this world
I just want to be found
You don't know how many nights I lie awake
Waiting for you to come around

Chorus
But mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word

Mum's The Word

finishing up an ep with a few tracks. it'll be out soon.



I sleep in the echo where no one replies
Hung in the static of unopened eyes
Your voice fades out like a hallway of glass
Time forgets gently, I just don’t pass

You forgot I was breathing
Left me ghost, white and slow
Like dust on the frame
Where the picture won’t show

My name is a whisper that no one repeats
A song left to rot in the back of your seat
I haunt through the wires, too quiet to hear
I knock, but you’ve buried the door in your fear

I was here, I was real
But now I just hum in the dark you conceal
I was here, I was real
And now I’m the wound you forgot how to feel

A Better Place – Light In The Sea EP

With Light In The Sea, A Better Place pull all the threads together. Across four tracks, the band proves why they’ve quickly become one of the most exciting new voices in indie rock.

From the drizzly intimacy of debut single It Rains, to the dreamlike haze of Don’t Mind, and the heartfelt punch of Someday—already spinning on Amazing Radio UK—the songs carry the DNA of ’80s/’90s alt-indie greats like Polvo, Dinosaur Jr., Unwound, Sebadoh, Teenage Fanclub, and The Posies, but with a freshness that’s entirely their own.

New track Remember When completes the story: a slow-burner that starts with gentle guitars and relaxed vocals, before erupting into a midtempo surge of energy. It’s nostalgic and forward-looking all at once, a reminder of why this band resonates so deeply.

Radio stations in the UK, the Netherlands, the US, and Belgium are already tuned in, and live, A Better Place is the kind of band that wins you over in one set flat.

Light In The Sea isn’t just an EP—it’s a statement. Indie rock, recharged and reimagined.

The Indie Pea – Reflected Hearts

Some bands take years to find their voice. The Indie Pea needed only one.

After their acclaimed debut The Questions in April 2025, the Dayton-based band returns with Reflected Hearts — a five-track EP that feels less like a follow-up and more like a radiant leap forward. Where the album asked, this EP answers.

Across these songs, The Indie Pea refine their signature blend of shimmering indie rock and orchestral pop, carried by Campbell Anderson’s warm, unhurried vocals and the band’s seamless interplay of guitar, strings, and rhythm. It’s a sound that balances clarity and complexity, intimacy and scale.

From the searching pulse of Echoes And Answers to the reflective shimmer of Mirrored Days, the luminous rush of Electric Bloom, and the guiding calm of Heartbeat Guide, each track feels like a facet of the same story. The closing Cross Bridges ties it all together — a finale that looks both back and forward, capturing a year of rapid growth with unshakable confidence.

Reflected Hearts is more than a snapshot; it’s a statement. A band stepping into its own light, finding resonance in reflection, and proving that sometimes one year is all it takes.

I ASK

You made me wait two hours flat,
Outside your job, and I’m fine with that,
The radio played our same old song,
And I didn’t mind, I just sang along.

Then you came out with that tired grin,
Shattered breath and city wind,
You said, “Thanks for being patient, babe,”
And I swear, my heart misbehaved.

Then you laughed, said it soft, so sweet,
“You’re my favorite boyfriend,” on repeat,
And I had to tease, couldn’t let it slide,
Said, “Oh, so I’m top five?”

Guess I’m your favorite one,
Between all the guys that don’t exist I won,
You roll your eyes, I play along,
You shake your head, but you still hum my song.
And if I’m number one on your make-believe list,
Then I’ll take that crown with a wink and a kiss,
‘Cause you’re my only, my always one,
And I’m your favorite one.

You said, “Don’t twist it, you know what I mean,”
But I kept grinning like a movie scene,
I said, “Sure, sure, I’ll take the prize,”
You said, “You’re impossible,” with laughing eyes.

We drove through lights, the streets asleep,
Your hand in mine, the promise deep,
It’s funny how those little lines,
Can turn to love that multiplies.

So go ahead, say it once more,
I’ll act confused, just like before,
‘Cause teasing you’s my favorite game,
And loving you’s the realest claim.

Guess I’m your favorite one,
Between all the guys that don’t exist  I won,
You roll your eyes, I play along,
You shake your head, but you still hum my song.
And if I’m number one on your make-believe list,
Then I’ll take that crown with a wink and a kiss,
‘Cause you’re my only, my always one,
And I’m your favorite one.

There’s no competition, no one to beat,
Just us two fools and a car seat,
Waiting two hours was worth the prize,
That look of love in your tired eyes.

Yeah, I’m your favorite one,
Between the dreams and the jokes we spun,
You laugh, I live for that tone,
‘Cause with you I never feel alone.
And if there’s a list, I’ll still insist,
You’re my first, my last, my twist,
So call me your favorite one —
I’ll call you my only sun.

You said it once, I’ll say it twice,
You’re my best mistake, my sweet device,
So yeah, I’m your favorite one…
And that’s enough for life. 

Favorite One
