IAN SWEET prepares to release her new album Crush Crusher, and lifts first single Hiding. 

Acting as the source of and solution to many of Jillian Medford’s deepest anxiety, IAN SWEET is her solo endeavour and it is under this project that she has recently released Hiding. It is the first single to be lifted from her forthcoming album Crush Crusher, which will be released on October 26th.

Reflecting on an interpersonal relationship that fell apart, there’s still a subdued optimism shining through in the track, to remind you that no matter what hurdles you have to cross, her music is there to make you feel a little less scared.

Medford comments:

‘Hiding’ is a song I wrote for myself to be reminded to never get consumed with anything to the point of forgetting about my own needs. This song is a projection of a sanctuary in which I feel safe and strong in my own desires. It is something I long for, to be confident in the things that make me, me. The song opens with convincing myself that it is ok to hide/shy away from situations when really I should never have to convince myself of anything other than what, just…feels good. This is my admittance to losing and forgetting something to someone else, but demanding to take it back.
