In Stereo was a trio of Australian singer-songwriters—Jakob Delgado, Chris Lanzon, and Ethan Karpathy—active between 2015 and 2018.

The group auditioned for season seven of The X Factor Australia in 2015, delivering a rendition of Taylor Swift's "Style". Under the guidance of mentor Guy Sebastian, they advanced to the top 12 before being eliminated on 20 October. Soon after their exit, they premiered a short web series titled the In Stereo Show on Facebook.

Ethan Karpathy departed from the band in December 2017, and by April 2018, Lanzon and Delgado decided to conclude In Stereo. Throughout their four-year career, they issued three EPs alongside four singles.

April 2016 saw the release of In Stereo’s debut EP, She's Rock n Roll, which reached number 11 on the ARIA Charts.

That same month, they embarked on an Australian tour named 'Honest'. Their follow-up EP, The Speed of Sound, released in July, climbed to number 3 on the ARIA Charts.

On 9 December 2016, the band launched the single "Girlfriend".

Their third EP, Day In, Day Out, was unveiled on 7 July 2017 and secured the top position on the Australian Pop Charts. To celebrate its release, they performed an EP launch event at Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory on 10 July and later toured Australia in September for the 'Day In Day Out' tour.

Ethan Karpathy announced his exit from the group via social media on 27 December 2017.

Following this, Lanzon and Delgado continued as a duo, releasing "Cruel" under the stylized name instereo on 12 January 2018, reflecting updated profiles across streaming services. The official disbandment was declared on 3 April 2018. Delgado commented: “After four years filled with unforgettable experiences... we have chosen to conclude In Stereo,” also hinting at his intentions for a solo career.
