Libby Johnston’s upcoming single Ingram Road, set for release on May 11, 2025, is a tender and emotionally rich tribute to her childhood and the memories rooted in her New Zealand upbringing. The song was created as a surprise Mother’s Day gift for her mum and it has a gentle intimacy that feels both personal and universally relatable, it’s one of the most unique and ich tracks I have heard this month. Inspired by artists like Taylor Swift and Gracie Abrams, Libby creates a sound that is delicate but powerful, weaving melodic storytelling with honest lyricism.
I really liked how the track is about a particular moment in Libby’s life, but also invites the listener to think about their own memories of home and family. Her voice is warm and wistful and the instrumental layers are soft, letting the message shine through clearly.
