Brooklyn-based indie-pop singer-songwriter Biz Barclay returns with Carried Away, a mesmerizing new single that blends shimmering indie-pop with deeply poignant storytelling. Out now, the track showcases Barclay’s signature ability to craft emotionally resonant lyrics wrapped in a cinematic atmosphere, making for a hauntingly beautiful listening experience.

With Carried Away, they further establish themselves as a standout voice in indie-pop, weaving themes of longing, self-discovery, and bittersweet nostalgia into every note. The song evokes the experience of wandering through forgotten dreams and memories, caught between what was and what could have been.
Drawing influence from artists like Phoebe Bridgers, Caroline Polachek, and Griff, Barclay’s music is both intimate and expansive. Carried Away feels like a sonic journey—one that invites listeners to reflect on their own experiences while embracing the beauty of what remains unsaid. With atmospheric melodies and raw emotion, the track is a perfect soundtrack for rainy-day musings or solitary drives through empty streets.
“I wanted to capture the feeling of being caught between moments—like when you’re stuck in a memory, but you can’t quite tell if it’s real or imagined,” says Barclay of the song. “I think Carried Away taps into that liminal space where wonder and melancholy coexist.”
As Barclay continues to evolve and push the boundaries of indie-pop, each release garners more attention from fans and critics alike. Their ability to fuse introspection with cinematic soundscapes has earned them a dedicated following, and Carried Away promises to resonate with both longtime listeners and those just discovering their music.
