Story

 

Singer/songwriter Lindsey Sweat, known professionally as Trella, began writing songs full-time at the age of 19. Growing up in the sacred space and leading the church band for most of her adolescent years, she naturally flowed into the gospel music at the beginning of her career. After living in Nashville for 4 years and getting over 150 cuts, she began to explore the indie-pop sphere. She quickly fell in love with this new sonic space, and started the project we know today as Trella.

You can hear the voice of Trella on networks ranging from Netflix and MAX to FOX, ABC, and Nickelodeon. She has played reputable festivals such as Lollapalooza and Wonderstruck and has sung on iconic stages such as Red Rocks, the Tennessee Theatre, and Terminal 5. She has opened up for acts such as Angie McMahon, AUGUSTANA, JOHNNYSWIM, Nick Mulvey, and more.

Trella has received over 18 million streams on Spotify and has been placed on many editorial playlists including New Music Friday, Indie Pop, and Fresh Finds Pop. She has also featured on multiple DJ tracks including songs by Big Gigantic, Dabin, ARMNHMR, William Black, and Kai Wachi. 

Trella is known for her energetic live shows that will take you on a dynamic journey; from quiet and somber guitar vocal moments to jumping and screaming your throat sore to a song of self-acceptance. Trella writes mostly on love, heartbreak and coming of age, also known as the sound of the twenties. She is known for her melodic voice and stream-of-conscious lyrics. You can presently find Trella in her Brooklyn studio writing for her 5th studio project said to be released in Spring of 2024.
