Vancouver-based, Australian-born singer‑songwriter Meredith Louise has her long-awaited return with her vibrant new single “Trust Myself," out on June 12th. The track blends retro‑soul warmth with a modern indie edge to celebrate self-belief, clarity, and personal empowerment.
Produced by Alvin Brendan (Mikey Jose, Tissa Rahim), “Trust Myself” explores the idea that genuine love begins with the relationship we cultivate with ourselves. The single showcases Meredith Louise’s evolving sonic palette and marks an exciting new chapter in her artistic growth.
Reflecting on the shift in her sound since the release of her 2024 sophomore EP Move Slow, Louise shares:
“I was burnt out from a big few years and trying to work my way back to wellness. As women, it can feel as though people are forever offering opinions on how we should care for ourselves, how we should move, how we should feel. When we learn to love and trust our inner knowing, the world doesn’t just open up. It expands, softens, and becomes ours to step into with clarity and courage.”
Alvin Brendan’s production amplifies this sentiment, adding depth, joy, and a driving groove supported by bright guitar hooks. A small ensemble of local vocalists are also featured who bring an added spirit to the track.
A powerful and joyful follow up to previous EP release Move Slow, Meredith Louise creates a sonic tapestry of jazz, neo-soul, and R&B, inspired by the common threads that weave us together. With a voice described as "powerful" and a writing style praised by Illustrate Magazine "catchy grooves with thought-provoking lyrics,” Meredith writes songs about people, places and landscapes, and how we can find our way back to our truth.
