Indya was first established in January 2015 and is the stage name of rock artist & songwriter Laudez Rose.
Laudez trained in music at the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology and then furthered her musical vocational training at Collins Performing Arts College in
Romford, Essex. Indya (meaning "gorgeous person") promised a wild and
glamorous rock band. After being told she had a very good rock voice,
Laudez decided to form Indya in an exciting bid to enter the rock circuit
with all guns blazing—and that she did!
Her first ever gig was supporting Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds at the
O2 Academy Liverpool in his after-show party. Noel had heard about
Laudez through the grapevine and handpicked her among other bands
to perform. On her travels, she drove a bus with all her musicians
from Brighton to Liverpool and back, getting stopped and breathalysed
twice in one night by two different sets of police vans.
Over the past seven years, Indya has toured the UK three times and
accompanied other acts on their tours, such as Velvet Insane and
The SoapGirls, while releasing multiple singles and EPs and
accumulating a large and loyal fanbase.
Indya's music is rock with a punky, playful edge, influenced by the
likes of artists such as Madonna, Enigma, Van Halen, Pat Benatar,
Chase & Status, The Prodigy, Marilyn Manson, Bring Me the
Horizon & Def Leppard.
She released her last album, "Rebel Music", in 2021 with producer
Dave Needham and has since made a comeback in 2022 with a
string of singles that, along with a range of brand new songs,
will be released on a new album titled "Leather n Lace".
These songs, made with producer Richard Burton, have won
the hearts of many radio stations, including Kerrang!, BBC
Radio Kent, and TotalRock, and have launched Indya into many
magazines such as Prog, Fireworks Rock & Metal and
Powerplay Rock & Metal.
After a year of toiling away in the studio, Leather n Lace will
be released on 6th May 2023 with a launch gig in HMV
Tunbridge Wells. The album is a huge rock blowout and will
be released both physically on CD and digitally on all major
streaming platforms.
