The track is the rising Australian artist’s first release of 2023.

Sydney singer-songwriter Michelle Sutton possesses a lush and personality-filled indie pop sound that is packed full of the artist’s distinctive witty appeal and charm. Having emerged back in 2020, the artist has been gradually establishing the fun nature of her sound and building up a catalogue of tracks that showcase the unique charisma and upside to her distinctive style.

The latest of these releases is her new single ‘Reliable Witness’, a track steeped a little bit more in gravity and seriousness as she tackles head on all of the men in authority that have used their power and sought to undermine her and discredit the fledgling artist. The endearing nature of the artist’s sound and writing and her fierce, feminist stance provides her with an easily likeable charm that makes you root for the artist, with her lush indie pop sound ensuring that the fun nature of her catchy and intimate sound isn’t drowned out by the more bittersweet narrative. ‘Reliable Witness’ is something of an anthem for women or anybody that has been discredited or treated unfairly by someone in a more prominent position than them, and its tongue-in-cheek, fun nature ensures that the artist’s personable appeal shines through throughout the track.
