Indigo De Souza's intimate, anxious indie rock songs wrangle with disappointment, relationship challenges, and self-acceptance. Following a pair of short-form releases, she delivered her debut album, I Love My Mom, in 2018. She then signed with Saddle Creek, which reissued the debut just weeks before releasing the tempestuous Any Shape You Take in 2021. Two years later, All of This Will End, while still visceral, reflected steps toward self-assurance, including allowing less outside input when it came to taking chances in the studio.

Raised in small-town Spruce Pine, North Carolina, and later based in Asheville, a teenaged De Souza recorded her first EP, Boys, in a friend's garage in 2016. Tracked at New Galaxy Records with producer/instrumentalist Ethan Baechtold, the three-song EP don't cry just do followed in 2017.

Collecting her strongest songwriting from the previous few years, De Souza recorded her first full-length to tape at a friend's house with Owen Stone and Jake Lenderman (aka MJ Lenderman), who co-produced and acted as her backing band. Sporting a rawer and more dissonant sound, I Love My Mom was self-released in June 2018. Saddle Creek took note and gave it a proper label release and vinyl pressing in June 2021. Co-produced by De Souza and Brad Cook (Bon Iver, Waxahatchee), the follow-up, Any Shape You Take, arrived soon after, in August. In the meantime, De Souza embarked on her first headlining tour, and her single "Hold U" cracked the Top 40 of Billboard's Adult Alternative Airplay chart.

She found herself writing her next album quickly and soon recorded it with her band (including guitarist Dexter Webb and drummer Avery Sullivan) at Drop of Sun Studios in Asheville. Any Shape You Take contributor Alex Farrar (Angel Olsen, Suki Waterhouse) recorded and co-produced All of This Will End, which followed on Saddle Creek in April 2023. ~ Marcy Donelson
