Speaker 1 (00:00):
Mister Higgins' new album, The Second Act, is out this Friday,
and Missy is with us now, Good morning, You're welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hi, Hi, guys, are you going good?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Not only is the Second Act coming out this Friday,
but the second act of the show. We'll be in
Kings Park on Sunday, fifteenth of December. Tickets are on
sale now through Ticketmaster. Tell us about why is the
second Act the second Act?
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Well, it is, and this new album is about entering
the second act of my life, I guess. I mean,
I went through a big separation a couple of years
ago from my husband, and we have two kids together,
so it feels like I'm really moving into the next
chapter of my life, taking a big kind of leap
into the unknown. And also I'm forty one, just turn
(00:47):
forty one, so I'm kind of moving into the second
chapter literally age wise, And I think around this age
is a lot of kind of no matter what you're
going through, there's always a bit of reassessing, I think,
and a lot of people I know around me are
going through similar kind of reckonings of identity and direction
and things like that. So yeah, it kind of grapples
(01:09):
with all those big life issues.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
All those issues been a while between drinks album wise,
mis see them. There's been a lot of life happening
in between. Did COVID effect that time as well?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
COVID was pretty intense for everyone, wasn't it. Melbourne particularly
had a very intense couple of years.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, I think it made everybody reassess their value, like
reassess what they wanted to do with their life, how
they wanted to live, who they were living with. You know. Yeah,
it was a bit of an uprooting of everybody's kind
of sense of safety and comfort.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I do feel that Melbourne had an experience that we
can't quite relate to in the same way. Here. You
were the most locked down of the world, really, and
we were probably the least. I was going to ask
why it's been six years since you released an album,
but I think you just answered it when you mentioned
what's been going on in your life. But coincides with
(02:03):
the twentieth anniversary of the Sound of White. First off,
can you believe it's been twenty years?
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Here? Was I four, wasn't it?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Yeah? I know, yeah, it's pretty big twenty years. I
have released music over the past six years it's just
and I released an album, it was just a mini album.
So this is my first full length album it in
six years. But yeah, it does coincide with the anniversary
of the Sound of White, which is kind of interesting
because it is there's definitely some parallels between the two albums,
(02:30):
I think.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yeah, and what a huge success it was for you
as well. Is a big part of your life.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yeah. Yeah, I have a lot to thank that album
for really, because it kind of really catapulted me into
the music scene.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Well, particularly Scar.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
It was one of those songs when when it came out,
it was one of those moments where you have where
you go, oh, hang on, this is this is good,
this is you know something new?
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Did you?
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Did you always feel Scar was going to have that
kind of impact on everyone?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
No, I mean I don't think anybody probably does when
they release the song unless you have a massive ego,
but I was. It was also, you know, my first
album ever, so I had no idea anybody would listen
to it. But that that song I did know was
a bit of an ear worm, Like yeah I wrote it,
(03:18):
it was like, oh my god, I can't cannot get
this chorus out of my head. It must be. It
must be Catch You One, Catch You One?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
So good, Hey, missy, I just want to know. As
a recording artist, you have to hear your voice over
again and hear your songs over again. But how do
you go with hearing and seeing yourself back? For example,
did you watch yourself on Australian Story on Monday Night?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
No? Watch myself?
Speaker 1 (03:37):
No.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I can't read anything about myself or watch myself or
listen to myself.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Weird.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Yeah, yeah, well I can't. I can't stop myself from
criticizing myself. I think just like picking up on every
little thing and honing in on it. So I'd rather
just get the broad strokes from someone else.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
People that read about themselves just asking for it, don't Yeah,
especially say that it was going to be someone who
didn't like what you said, especially you're a whole episode
of Australian Sorry, there's a lot to pick on.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Yah.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Yeah, that was wonderful.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, and it's pretty like you know, I get very
honest and vulnerable because the whole album is so it's
pretty intense, absolutely very honest. I had to go there.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah, just thinking back to the first act for a moment,
do you remember the first time you heard yourself on
the radio.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Yeah, it was when I had one triple j unearthed
when I was seventeen. And yeah, I heard it on
the radio at my my little because I went to
boarding school. I heard it little radio that I woke
up to every morning. And yeah, it was crazy. It
was amazing, and yeah, the best feeling ever.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
It's very very cool. I'm missing. In a couple of months,
you are being inducted, let me say this, into the
Aria Hall of Fame. When you found out, how did
you feel? And congratulations by the way, yes, congratulations, thank you.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Yeah, it was quite surreal. Actually, I felt extremely honored.
I mean, when I think about the other people who
have been inducted into the Hall of Fame, I can't
quite believe I'm going to be in their company.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Right Our second actor is in Kings Park on Sunday,
the fifteenth of December. You have had some bad luck
occasionally without tour shows, but I think we're going to
be pretty safe on the fifteenth of December. Tickets are
on sound now through Ticketmaster and the second act the
album is out on Friday. Once again, congratulations on the
(05:35):
Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Thanks so much. Guys, thank you.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Every introduction on that show will be Hall of Fame
and we'll say that, yeah, exactly. Thanks, Thanks, have a
good day.
