Tessa Dalton’s 'Whiplash' Explores the Sweet Agony of a Situationship in Soothing Indie-Pop Style

Updated: Nov 6

Tessa Dalton’s "Whiplash" captures that all-too-relatable ache of a "situationship," balancing between longing and resignation with a potent indie-alt-pop vibe. Written in a burst of introspection during a studio break, this track dives into the messiness of emotional conflict—holding onto something you know is unlikely to work but can’t quite let go of. Dalton's vocals bring a soothing intimacy to the verses, paired with a gentle double guitar that effortlessly slides into a rock-infused chorus, mirroring the song’s inner turmoil.



For a 20-year-old Nashville-based fiddle player with roots in rural Idaho, Dalton is proving her versatility. Her background in bluegrass and Americana peeks through in the rawness of her storytelling, even as she explores new musical territory. “Whiplash” is not just a song—it’s an experience, a deep sigh for anyone tangled in the undefined and unexplained.


With this release, part of her ambitious project to share a new song each month, Dalton is making her mark in the indie-pop scene. "Whiplash" showcases her knack for blending musical styles and capturing the emotional rollercoaster that is modern romance. It’s a laid-back yet powerful track that brings comfort to those navigating their own relationship dilemmas.
