to bring this up so early. I actually went to
drama school and we learned the southern the Southern American accent,
and they always give you a key phrase like southern
Southern American. Oh yeah, And they always give you a
phrase to say when you learn an accent. And the
Southern one was can you help me move the sofa

(01:30):
out of my van? You should have learned the southern
accent like there is of us.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Watching old Warner Brothers cartoons and that giant chicken folk
onn Lighorn.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
It was like, Southern nations are so crazy because half
the time it's like, will you help me move my sofa?

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Album? Here? Here, porch girl. You know, it's like such
just positions of it.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
I love it. So you're from California, I am, but
this is a very real country.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah. My mom is from North Carolina, my grandma lives there.
My whole family is from the South, and my the
way I grew up was cool because it was like
in California, so it's very like liberal and like right
by the beach, and so we had like that whole
like surf culture, like California culture. But also my hometown
of San Luis Obispo is like such a small It's

(02:26):
called San Luis Obispo, called slow.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Between Ally and San France.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Yes, exactly, yes, on the coast Louis. But it's like
wine country, like a bunch of farm I grew up
riding horses, so like we also have that, and we
have like the Mid State Fair, which is like the
biggest country festival up in like the central coast. So
you're a Kelly go but you've got you California girls,
the southern heart.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
I like that. Been to Austin.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Uh huh, it's not about Austin at all. It's like
round coming, honest round. Yeah, it's about a boy. It's
about a boy.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Do you do you.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Have a putter of thee? I do? Okay, partner is
uh he is?

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Heye? You move yourself always like worried that won dery
if you if you don't make it, and I don't
want to do your relationship, but that you'll write a
song about him? Oh for sure.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
I mean he's also an artist and a songwriter, so
like we usually, yeah, we usually write a lot of
songs about each other. And yeah it's cute.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
No, no what you What I did there is called
cutting you off even though you're the Geese.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
And I'm sorry. It's okay, girl, because this song is
literally like huge, it's massive things. It's funny because like
the song is obviously not about him, because that would
be really bad if I was still with him. You know,
let's break that one down real quick. But he's he'll
come to my shows obviously, and like all all my
songs right now that I'm playing in my shows are
all about this X and like path relationships and like

(03:53):
random stuff like that. And he's such a good sport.
He just stand there and he's like, I don't even
care you're thing about all these other people because like
he does the same thing, you know, like aout me exactly.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
So it hasn't been just the craziest year it.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Yeah, Like I cannot tell you how different my life
was in January.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Like compared to now.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Yeah, like barely paying rent, like freaking out, like what
am I doing? Is this going to work?

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (04:17):
To just everything working? It's really wild. Half asking changed.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Well it's not an EIGHTI though, right, You've been working
at it for a while.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
Yeah. I released my first so when I was thirteen,
eight years old.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah wow. Yeah, I wrote a song when I was
nine years old and didn't we all. It was called
I Can't Remember Me and my friend Charlotte were in
a band together. We were nine years old. It was
called there Are Times in My Life and the lyrics
there were times in my life when I need you, baby, baby,
tell me more. Yes, but you were not there, old baby,

(04:49):
tell me tell me more.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
You were nine?

Speaker 1 (04:52):
Weird what I did? No?

Speaker 3 (04:53):
No, no, you neiver kid?

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Isn't that crazy? Young hearts they love hard, long heart's young.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
Young young hearts feel a lot, but we don't always
know how to say it. Like I have so many
songs I wrote as an eight year old that is
so deep, but the sentences don't connect in any way
Like I was. I was popping off, but you didn't
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
Yeah, you should do it now that like everyone knows
who you are. You should like release them like we
recalled them as you now people.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
It's a really good idea. She's anything better to do
right now? Like, oh no, I don't have any lot
of free time right now. Yeah, eight year old songs.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
I'm disappointed because well I'm not disappointed, like happy to
have you here, but we don't get.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
Disappointing to have me here.

this beautiful, beautiful place. I heard it coming in summer
Ensland is called I heard it's just the most magical
place in the entire world.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
And you need to go so bad. Yeah, it's genuinely
a really great place. And you you mentioned you're from

I mean after dinner I'm free? So, oh my god, kidding,

way you call the people to hang out with them

pirate PlayStations. I can't say doing.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
And yeah, I'm going to go to my daughter's nball game.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
And then which is like basketball if.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
You don't let to bounce it traveling and there's no
backa there's no back.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Basketball with traveling travelers. You said no bouncing, Yeah, you
just got to catch it and pass it to the
next You can't run with it, Okay, gotcha, no traveling.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Actually, when you break down nitball as a sport sounds embarrassing.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
It is.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
It is kind of silly. I would play though, Yeah,
I would pick it. I do pick up gameying kids
to stop paying it like another sport they could play, Yeah,
they do. Play other sports, but their friends play this one.
And you know how a lot of times you just do.

headline tour before. And I wasn't really sure how it
was gonna sell or anything, because I'm like, who knows?
And it's sold out?

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah, I love it. I reckon you would have been
the only person who doubted that it was yeah, you know,
because I get so scared to get my hopes up,
you know, because so many big things have been happening.
