Songs we love: Lewis Coleman – Talking to Yourself

Lewis Coleman is an Australian indie rock musician. Hailed as a “bold new voice” (Clash Magazine) for his 2020 debut Method Of Places, Coleman’s music is a blend of the abstract and melodic, combining elements that shift and morph around the listener with a hushed intensity, while always remaining grounded by a strong rhythm section.

I don’t know what it is exactly, but I really enjoy music by Australian artists. There is something very special about their songs… Lewis Coleman is no exception, his new single Talking to Yourself is just brilliant. I really like the dirty production that sort of reminds me of the arid Australian landscape (I’ve never been to Australia so I can only imagine) and makes me want to go for a long desert drive.

I’ve been listening to Car Seat Headrest a lot lately, and Lewis’ music feels a lot like that to me – fresh, emotional, catchy, smart. (also, the video! ❤ )

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.
