Steph Copeland - 'Love Didn't Care For Me'


Toronto based artist and screen composer Steph Copeland is scorned by love on brooding vintage indie folk song, ‘Love Didn’t Care For Me’.

Steph Copeland tops into everything I love about melancholic and wistful indie folk with ‘Love Wouldn’t Care For Me’. The lyrics are poetic, sorrowful and tinged in darkness, but there’s no sense of self-pity. Copeland’s storytelling unhurriedly falls off her tongue with a timeless vintage folk appeal that’s thoroughly intoxicating. Ominous guitar work and ambient Americana tones offer minimal but deeply affecting backing to a track that leaves you feeling haunted.

‘Love Didn’t Care For Me’ was written for the final song in the film "The Oak Room" (2020 Black Fawn Films) starring RJ Mitte (Breaking Bad). It is written and performed by Steph Copeland and Chris Wong (Ria Mae, NIIVA, The Face Plants) and sounds like hazy sunshine scorching dusty roads. A perfect song for fans of First Aid Kit.
