a discovery playlist featuring weekly top 10 music releases

1. Reneé Rapp- Leave Me Alone: This one kicks off a new era for Reneé, and it’s already sounding sharper, meaner, and more unfiltered. Pop music this summer feels super chaotic and messy and I’m so here for it

2. Wednesday- Elderberry Wine: Wednesday has been my favorite cool indie band since Rat Saw God, and this new track just cements it. 

3. Runnner- Achilles And: Delicate, devastating, and raw. Runnner’s vocals feel like a voice memo from a friend who just got their heart broken

P.S. Scroll to the end to vote on your favorite song!

1. I don’t know why but suddenly my pits are sweating and the room is spinning a bit.

2. Samia covering Waxahatchee is breath taking!

3. Role Model breaking the fourth wall with his “UPDATED ENEMIES” list.

4. “We’re pop girls because they don’t have a better word for us.”

5. Reneé you will always be famous.

6. Life is all about perspective. We stan a tall king.

7. Play ”Louder, Please” louder, please.

8. I’ve been singing this mantra since it came out.

9. Clean sweep for the main categories for Billie Eilish at the AMAs!

10. So cute to see people singing along to this, our AMA winner for New Artist of the Year.

things that i’ve been super into lately that i need to share with you guys

1. I’m not a country music listener, but something about sleeping outside makes me wanna hear some twang. Here’s my perfect indie twang playlist for your summer adventures. 

2. My style inspo for the summer is…buttons. Not like boring buttons but buttons that are colorful, unique, and even a little impractical. I think it adds such a fun detail to a piece of clothing, like this sweater and this pair of pants. 

3. I love the brand Sønderhaus, but I especially have been loving their collab with Zoelaz lately… these sets are adorable and the Heidi vest?! You’re kidding me.

movies, tv shows, and actors on my radar right now

1. Casting announcements for the new Hunger Hames movie Sunrise On The Reaping ended with a casting call asking anyone to audition.

2. The live action Lilo and Stich movie was released! I have mixed feelings about going to see it, but it did have a stellar opening in theaters! 

3. The Last of Us star Bella Ramsey revealed their top 4 movies for Letterboxd and yeah… I knew they’d have great taste

What does life look like for you right now?

Ins and outs lately? 👑📅🫶

Ins: Hairspray Soundtrack when u feel sad, sudoku puzzles/NYT Games, therapy, beginner dance classes, tightlining (like with eyeliner)

Outs: High Screen Time, hopelessness, “tummy control” anything. Lemme see that thing!, not talking to people in public. Sorry I wanna gab with my barista.

What’s your favorite hobby right now? What’s a hobby you want to get into this year? 🛹🧘‍♀️📷

I LOVE going to the movies. I’m not a cinephile by any means but I really love getting a crispy diet coke and going to see some horror flick or romcom with my best friend and then doing a full review afterwards. I’d love to pick up a crafty hobby. I’m not very artistic in the fine arts sense, but I love making friendship bracelets. Maybe I’ll pick that up again because I used to eat that up at summer camp. 

Piece of media that’s influenced you 🎼🖼️🎬

The Spice Girls’ discography. I was obsessed with them when I was a little girl. A few days ago I decided to shuffle through their music and realized how many similarities there are between their music and mine.

If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why? 🦸‍♀️⚡️🕸️

Definitely teleportation or flying. Being able to travel wherever I want, whenever I want with no traffic would be crazy. 

Any interesting/silly/fun recent tour anecdotes? 🎆🤪🙈

At my last show, I signed two (2) boobs, a mother and daughter pair <3 

What artists are on repeat for you right now? 🎧📻💿

I swear I’m not saying this because of ATG, but Doechii and Djo have been at the top of my playlists recently. I also never stop listening to Lady Gaga or Ariana Grande. 

Describe your recent work by a color/season/mood/something interesting 🍂🌨️🌼

I feel like my recent work is giving late August afternoon, sun is setting, you’re on a patio with your friends drinking a spicy margarita and y’all are about to hit the town in a major way … 

Is there an artist you’ve seen live that blew you away? 🪕🎫🎤

I saw Ashe at her one night only in Nashville last year and she was insane. I’ll definitely be catching her set at All Things Go. I also have not stopped thinking about the Short n Sweet tour since I saw it. Sabrina Carpenter puts on an incredible show <3

What’s your hidden talent(s)? 🎭💃🏓

I have a few good impressions up my sleeve… I’d say my best impression is probably my Kourtney Kardashian. I have no videos but maybe I’ll bust it out onstage if I’m asked nicely.

What have you done as an artist that you are most proud of? Whether it be a song lyric, a music video, a performance, etc,. 🥹👏👍

I am the most proud of something that’s coming later this year… this past year has been such a challenge for me artistically and I can’t wait to share the fruits of that labor. But as far as things that have already happened, I am most proud of my performance last summer at Bonnaroo. It was my first major festival performance and my band and I really rose to the challenge. I can’t wait to do it all over again at ATG this year :) 

Top 4 favorite films? 🎞️⭐️🎥

In no particular order: Hairspray, The Parent Trap, She’s The Man, and Remember the Titans.

Are you excited to play All Things Go? 👏💖☁️

Excited is an understatement. All Things Go is a DREEEAM! I’ve heard that the vibes are incredible — very gay, very positive, very fun. I’m honored to be part of Lesbo-pallooza <3

Where do you see yourself in 10 years—musically and personally? 🎤👶🎼

In ten years, musically, I see myself living my dream as a pop star! I’ll probably be on album number 8 or 9 by then, playing stadiums around the world with a huge band, dancers, sparkles, the whole vision. Maybe I’ll be doing an 8-week stint on Broadway or dabbling in TV/film acting ;) Personally, I hope to be in a place where I am super fulfilled creatively with the means to visit my family and friends often. And maybe I’ll find the love of my life by then, but no rush on that front. Oh, I will also have a really sweet dog. <3
