Important To You

About the Artist

Magan-djin/Brisbane-based singer-songwriter Lottie McLeod - who has quickly built a reputation for atmospheres and lyrics that connect and resonate deeply, tapping into art's ability to comfort and even quietly heal wounds - shares 'Important To You', a song that dives into the complexity of "setting boundaries for your own preservation", especially when both parties are struggling. "You’ll end up threatening your life, I've seen the photo proof I don’t wanna be important to you I'm the reason you’re alive, and how without me there's no use I don’t wanna be important to you" On 'Important To You', Lottie McLeod's initially soft but assured vocals carry grief, regret and determination across low-slung guitar and a bed of plaintive, stare-out-over-the-sea indie/alt-folk instrumentation that builds with fuzzed-out guitar, McLeod's increasingly resolute voice and splashy drums to a spontaneous scream of release in the track's dense, noisy outro.
