The musical talent runs strong in the Yelich family!
Lorde‘s younger sister, India “Indy” Yelich O’Connor, is turning heads online after sharing a snippet of her own music project from quarantine. The 21-year-old poet and songstress uploaded the clip to her Instagram on Friday, April 18th, and fans are already asking when it’ll be put on streaming services.

Based on the one-minute snippet, the melancholy track appears to document the end of a romantic relationship as Indy sings about “awkward conversations” and a thousand goodbyes:
“Wish I could sit in bed with you, now we stare across the room
goodbye a thousand times, but it’s eating me alive
there’s nothing I can do about it
you and I
awkward conversations in the corner
you used to hold me
– – – –
where’d you go? drinking with your friends again?
didn’t try to find me, you know I got to catch a flight, it’s fine
I’ll never see your face again
wonder if it’s hard for you,
are you thinkin’ ’bout me too
goodbye”
Longtime fans of Indy are already well aware of her musical endeavors. The singer has been uploading snippets of music on her Instagram stories for close to a year now that feature a mix of indie, upbeat pop as well as an emotional piano ballad.
