Nottingham-born singer-songwriter Indiana first got into music when her sister moved house but couldn't find room for her piano in her new place. Indiana offered to store it in her dining room and started playing around on the keys. She picked it up quite quickly and by 2010 was writing songs. By the end of the following year Indiana started concentrating on making a career as a recording artist and on February 17, 2013 she released her debut single "Bound." The Nottingham native scored her first UK chart hit with this euphemistically-titled song in which she describes her penchant for dancing "to the bitter end" by herself.
The song's single release also contains three remixes by Chris Lake, Joe Goddard and KAOS.
Ostensibly a song about joyously dancing on your own, both Indiana's detached vocal delivery and the minimal, icy instrumentation make the listener question their assumptions about its meaning. "I write these songs that can appear to be love songs, and seem all nice and sweet," she told Billboard magazine. "But then you peel away that first layer and chip away at that exterior, and they're all dark and a little bit twisted, and a bit sinister … I'm quite an odd person anyway, but I think if I didn't write these songs, I'd probably be doing horrible stuff. I write these songs to save other people from things I might do."
