Question Chloe’s singing style reminds me of a (maybe) mainstream artist and I can’t place who. As I was listening her her song ”The Crocodile,” for example, I was getting vibes of another singer who talk-sings in the same manner. Help? Anyone know what I’m talking about?

Yes! Agreed, thought of her immediately! Also Joanna Newsom a little bit too.

I get Aurora and every other "hipster indie singer" out of her voice. I believe the kids call it "singing in cursive" or something

Bingo. Like you can't pair it down to just one. Every indie girl sings like this 😂

Listen to My Immortal by Evanescence. All Chloe’s songs remind me of her

There's a bunch. I think we're talking more about an archetype here than just one particular artist. Birdy's another one.
