Australian singer, songwriter, and poet meadowhip has released a new single, “Inside Out,” the title track from her six-track EP. This indie R&B gem is an emotional plunge in sultry melodies and hypnotic grooves that shows meadowhip is an artist who has no problem bearing her soul, while still tucking just enough of it away.
Through her signature velvet vocal style, meadowhip sweeps you into the reality that seethes of both vulnerability and self-preservation in synchronicity. “Inside Out” is about that fine line of allowing someone to be close but never too close. It’s about keeping someone on the other side of the table so they can’t see you, and that’s more than skin deep. This is an inward-looking message, mirroring a quiet, intimately specific, and excruciatingly relatable song.
“Inside Out” is a carefully woven tapestry of sound, from snapping drums and pulsating hums to the quiet elegance of a vintage upright piano. The only mixture of modern and old-school textures that animate the song, with trumpet sounds adding warmth and depth. The faraway thrum of breakout meadowhip’s debut flute recording is a high bar of detail that humbles a track consumed by pay dirt’s density.
What’s remarkable about “Inside Out” is its delicate balance of warmth and restraint. The song pulls you in and lets you drown in its rhythmic current. For those who appreciate their indie R&B soulful and with an emotional core, “Inside Out” is an inevitable must-listen. With this release, meadowhip is carving out a defining space in the music landscape where deep feeling meets breezy cool.
