Indio Downey Vulnerably Explores Addiction and Newfound Sobriety

AUDIO – LIKE FATHER LIKE SON LIKE SON –

Jan. 24, 2024 – Indio Downey is an alternative-rock/grunge-punk-lover’s dream. He blends flavors of Nirvana and early Green Day with his own unique, vulnerable sound to create 90s grunge for the 2020s. His debut EP, Cigarettes in Bed, takes listeners on a journey through Downey’s self-destructive struggle with substance abuse.

The EP opens with the title track “Cigarettes in Bed,” painting a picture of two people languishing in their anti-social feelings together. When you’re next to me / The weight of the world doesn’t feel so heavy / And the storm clouds float away / Your sensual kiss brings me to a state of bliss / I need it right now, Downey sings in the second verse, creating a scene of camaraderie in the feelings of isolation.

Downey said about the song, “‘Cigarettes in Bed’ is a love song about a previous relationship. When I felt overwhelmed by the weight of the world their company always gave me peace of mind. The visual of smoking cigarettes in bed is a glimpse into a time when being together helped us cope with our loneliness.”
