Indie pop singer FLETCHER drawing inspiration from personal experience provides sexual harassment and assault survivors with a new empowering anthem “I Believe You” co-written by Lauren Aquilina.
In a statement detailing the inspiration behind the track, the songwriter wrote, “this song is for all of the amazing women I work with every day who have been felt up, shut up and kicked down. And for all the women whose stories I haven’t heard, this song was made to let them know that I’m listening, we all are.”
Later adding, “for weeks, I had been trying to write this and just couldn’t find the right way to do it. After hundreds of lyric ideas on my iPhone and various voice memos with different co-writers, it wasn’t until I talked for hours with my co-writer Lauren Aquilina that I felt our story of strength and solidarity was heard.”

Revealed in the Billboard.com debut, the vocalist will be donating the proceeds from the track to Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund.
