SINGLE REVIEW | DILLION SQUIRE- X-RAY GIRL by Charlotte Cairnie
On the 14th of October 2026, Dillon released his striking new single, ‘X-Ray Girl’. The tune is a lovely blend of indie influences, bringing together guitar-driven moments, dreamy atmospheric sounds and an upbeat energy that gives the track plenty of personality. Rather than relying on one particular sound, there’s a real mix of styles running throughout, giving it an almost nostalgic indie feel while still sounding fresh. It’s the kind of song where the overall production does much of the talking, with its catchy melodies and layered instrumentation creating an enjoyable listening experience.
For me, the song feels like it’s about letting someone in, someone who can see right through you even when you aren’t particularly comfortable with being so vulnerable. It paints a picture of two people who come into each other’s lives unexpectedly, learning to let each other in, accept one another’s flaws and perhaps even understand parts of themselves they hadn’t fully acknowledged before. It’s about letting someone in and seeing your flaws when you are still trying to accept them yourself. There’s something quite lovely about that idea, and it gives the track much more of a personal feeling beyond its upbeat sound.
Dillon Squire is certainly one to have on your radar. Bringing his own refreshing take on indie rock, Dillon combines catchy melodies with an authentic sound that feels both exciting and effortlessly natural. There’s something special about artists who can create music that feels personal while still making you want to turn it up and sing along. With plenty of potential and an exciting sound to explore, Dillon is definitely an artist worth getting to know.
There’s always something exciting about discovering an artist whose sound makes you curious about what they’ll do next. ‘X-Ray Girl’ has certainly put Dillon on my radar, and I’ll be looking forward to hearing where his musical journey takes him
