THE ANXIETY

THE ANXIETY is a musical duo formed by singer-songwriters Willow (Willow Smith) and Tyler Cole. The project emerged as a collaborative outlet distinct from Willow's solo alternative R&B work, blending indie pop, alternative and electronic textures with introspective, emotionally candid songwriting. The duo's sound favors atmospheric production, layered vocal harmonies and lo-fi warmth, often exploring themes of connection, vulnerability and mental wellbeing, in keeping with the project's name.

Songs such as «Meet Me At Our Spot», «Poolside» and «After You Cry» showcase the duo's blend of dreamy indie-pop melodies with more rock- and electronic-leaning production choices, giving their catalogue a genre-fluid identity. «Meet Me At Our Spot» in particular found a wide audience years after its release, becoming one of the project's best-known tracks.

THE ANXIETY represents a distinct creative space for both artists, allowing Willow and Tyler Cole to experiment outside the expectations attached to their individual careers, and the project has built a devoted following drawn to its intimate, genre-blending approach.
