A little over a year ago, I finally made the move from Australia to LA after years of flying back and forth, writing, exploring, and figuring out who I was as an artist. That journey led me to my creative home with Lee Miles and Radar Initiative, where we spent a year crafting a sound that just felt right, pushing pop in a way that actually excites us. Now, with an incredible team, including Laurianne Gibson and Timothy Temper, I couldn’t be more excited for what’s next, more music, my first U.S. shows, and so much more. We’re just getting started. It’s gonna be a ride.
ABOUT “GET OFF”:Lee and I were in the studio, and I was going off about how dating in LA is the worst especially this one guy who was just too much. Lee joked, “It’s like… get off my dick, bro!” and we completely lost it. Lee jumped up, ran to the piano, played something, and spun around yelling, “THAT’S IT!” I was like, “What’s it?” and he goes, “GET OFF MY DICK!” The song basically wrote itself after that. We recorded it, Tony Maserati worked his magic, and just like that, Get Off was born.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, and good afternoon. How are you doing.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm good, How are you?

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Absolutely fantastic excited to talk with you because you've you've
got courage to write music that's about real life situations.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Absolutely, yes, I.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Mean to take something that somebody has said and turn
it into a song. You know, get Off. I mean that.
I love the story behind that, and to me, that's
where music is born.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
M yes, absolutely, get Off is based on Yeah, definitely
my real life experience, and it's about just like telling
people to like back off in a beautiful melody way
and someone who just doesn't get the hint. I mean,
we've all been there, So I feel like everyone will

(00:48):
relate to this song. I mean, I don't know if
everyone will relate to saying like get off my dick,
especially some go but I think they can relate.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
To some aspect of this song for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
Well.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
I love how blunt it is. It reminds me of
the days of when Katie Perry gave us I Kissed
a Girl and then we had the song I'm a Bitch.
I mean I was on the air when both of
those songs came out, and how it really caught the
attention of the average listener.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Yes absolutely, Oh my gosh, I love those songs too,
and it sucks like a.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Flame within the listener to be like who is that?

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Especially as like a new artist, I want my lyrics
to be crazy and be like who says that?

Speaker 2 (01:27):
So they touched me up, like who is this?

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Are you marketing it? Are you gonna put it on
a T shirt? And put it on other memorabilia.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
I actually haven't even thought about that, but it would
be cute, like a little Ghettle T shirt?

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, that is cute the way
that the song is even it moves forward. That's what
I love about this song. It doesn't stay stuck in
a chorus, and it doesn't stay you know, just it
really does take the listener on a journey.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Yes, yes, absolutely, that's that's something that I love about.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
Freddy mccuryus one my biggest inspirations.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
So I like how it's not like a typical verse
pre chorus song. It's different. It's like a verse chorus bridge.
It's it's random. So I do like the build up
of songs like that that are different. I don't like
the typical pop songs, even though I do have a

(02:22):
typical pop song out. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
But the thing about it is, though, is that when
when you build it like a Freddie Mercury song, what
happens is is that you go into an area that
you didn't expect, and every time you go back to
listen to that song, it's still that you know you
didn't expect it, even though you've heard it a million times.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yes, yes, absolutely, that's what I love.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
You're bringing glamour to music again. This is something that
we have been missing out on for a long time.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
I love that. I love that so much. Yeah, I
do think that there needs.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
To be like a different wave of real music coming
back because I feel like it's so manufactured and everything
has been out, like pop songs just sound the same.
Even though I love pop and like I love the
pop songs that are coming out like Sabrina Caapander and
Chaperone and Charlie c.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
X, I love those songs.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
But yeah, I feel like we need like a different way,
the different artist that has different lyrics, small, bold, and
like weird aspects to a song.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
I love just weird.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Yeah, because you want the Rolling Store magazine to say
I like this one because she's willing to go there.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yes, yes, absolutely.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Well, now, being heard everywhere today requires loyalty and determination
from your fans. How do we get your fans to
get you on a Spotify list? How to you know,
to get out there on Apple and to push you
forward because they are the influencers and they're the ones
that can really help out here.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Oh yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
I'm so bad when it comes to like strategy and
behind the scenes with that, so because I'm so focused
on my music and what i want the listeners to hear.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
But I just I just hope that when someone.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
Approaches my song and listens to it, that they resonate
with it in some sort of way with it, either
like a giggle or like oh kay, I've been there,
Like something as simple as that, I hope makes them
click like oh yeah, let.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Me add it.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Do do you keep taking any ideas from from journals
or anything like that because or are you just experiencing
life and then you get on your phone and you
give yourself a message about we need to write a
song about this one.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
It Usually my song ideas usually come when I like,
head to my songwhere irit out and producer Lee Miles's house.
I usually always write my songs with him. So I'm
just like talking and talking and talking and just talking
away about something of that's happening in my life and
what happened on the like Saturday night, and just talking.

(04:43):
I never think that it's going to turn into a
song until it does. So like with this one with
get Off, I was saying about how on Saturday, like
this guy came over.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
He was so annoying. He was blowing me up, he like,
and then he showed up.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
He infided himself up to my apartment and he was
like eating all my food, doing everything.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
And I was like, is this dude, like, get out
of my apartment.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
It was driving me crazy and I and then when
I was explaining this story to him, he said.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
It's like, get off my dick. Bro like do my dick.
And I'm like, yeah, dick, get off.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
So yeah, then he just wrote this beautiful piano melody
and I was like, okay, well we found it.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
So now what happens next? How do you get it
onto a top forty radio station. Are you gonna have
to go in there and splice it out or are
you gonna put a different word in there?

Speaker 3 (05:37):
I think the clean version will be just get off
my and then just nothing like a little sound effect.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
That's what we'll do to make it clean.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
And you know that that's dangerous for mobile DJs like
me because I'll be playing that song out of school
and they're gonna say it. Those things out there are
going to be saying that word.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
Oh, it's terrible. I know it's so terrible. I actually
don't even swear in my real life. Oh, it's so
weird that I swear in all of my songs.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
It's bad. It's bad.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Hey, don't move. There's more with the Lissenda coming up next. Hey,
thanks for coming back to my conversation with Lucinda Odette.
Let's talk about the song Not for Me. You play
with some soul on this one. There's a rhythm in
there that is so catchy and those bass beats making
emotional mm hmm.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yes, not for Me.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
I wrote like three years ago, and I just I
just wanted to be like a catchy pop song because
I mean, I thought that that's what everyone wants to hear,
and that's like how I'm going to get my name
out there is to do what everyone else is doing.
But obviously now I'm doing it differently with the songs
I Get Off and my other songs that are coming
out soon.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
I am doing it differently, but not for me.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
It's just like a cute, catchy song that I think
a lot of people can relate to because it's just
I know me, Like, I'm so bad when it comes
to dating.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
There's so many guys that come into my life that
are nice and like.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Sweet or even not nice, and every single time I'm like, yeah,
you're not for me. I'm just in that time of
my life that I'm saying not for me to everyone.
So it's just like you and the melody in the
chorus is so catchy. I hear my dad seeing it randomly,
I'm like, you haven't even heard that song in like
a year, Dad, Like, what are you doing?

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Like seeing the still now? Where are you promoting the music?
Are you on a live stage somewhere? Are you in
a club? Where are you doing it at?

Speaker 3 (07:30):
So that's actually my next plan, my next phase of
my career, what we're doing with my team.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
So I work with Laurie Anne Gibson.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
She's an incredible choreographer and incredible creative director.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
She has changed my life.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
She's beautiful, she's the most magical person ever. So I'm
currently in the studio every single day working with her
with like choreography with live performances.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
It's just practicing for it.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
So hopefully by April or May, I'll be promoting my
songs with live performances like someonere like hotel cafe or
somewhere in Hollywood, like those little stages that new artists
break out into. So with May starting May, I think
that I'll be back on stage promoting it. And I
need to be back on stage. It's been too long,

(08:19):
so I'm excited for that.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
I was wondering if there was going to be a
dance involved in your presentation, and the reason why is
because of that song soft Spot, because that right there
has an electronic edge to it.

Speaker 3 (08:30):
Yes, oh my gosh, that's so funny because that song
wasn't even meant to be out because it was meant
to be like a little algorithm song. So it is
just a demo but it's so cute and catchy and like,
all of my friends love it, and I'm like, okay,
a demo song. Everyone loves a demo song for some reason.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
It's weird. So yeah, I forgot the question.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Well, the question is that that I wasn't shocked that
dance was going to be a part of your routine
because you definitely have dance inside your rhythms.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, I love that. Yeah, it's my dancing is.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
What Elgie, like Laurien Gibson, tries to get it out,
like what naturally comes out in me when it comes
to choreography, because I'm not a natural dancer, so typically it's.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
Just simple movements that portrays a lot.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
So it's simple, but it's amazing, it's cool, it's different.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yeah, I think the average listener and when they when
they discover you even more and more and more, they're
going to realize how how cool you are as well,
because anyone who openly admits that they like fat sandwiches
is the greatest thing on earth.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
That is hilargrious. How you know that? Yeah, I mean
everyone likes a fat sandwich.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Come on, come on. Now. The thing is is that
we're talking about the older songs and things, but what
listeners are going to do is the same exact thing
that I did. After I found found the song get
off listen to the song. I had to go searching
for more music from me, and so the natural progression
is people are going to go looking for you.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
Yes, yeah, And I'm excited to be putting out a
new single every single six weeks, so hopefully they'll stick
and listen to them all.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Because the music that's coming out next is.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
My favorite music that I've ever done, So it's it's
gonna be it's gonna be cooler than the stuff that's already.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
Out in my opinion, I grew up in the state
of Montana, so when I hear that you like the
state of Idaho, I'm going, hey, come on, go to Montana.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
So funny.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
What is it about the Pacific Northwest that you really like?
Because I mean, that is unstoppable country up there.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
I don't actually, I don't really know much about that.
Where did you get that?

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Oh man, there's so much stuff about you on the
Internet to see and see. That's when you sit there
and you wonder if it's not clickbait or not. But
I mean, you got to google yourself sometime.

Speaker 3 (11:00):
That's not saying google myself. I mean, I love America.
I'm so bad with all that though, so I love it.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
I mean, yeah, that's so funny.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
I'm just like, where'd you get that? That you even
know that, like fat Sandwich is one of my Spotify buio.
That's hilarious.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Making that decision to go to Los Angeles. I mean,
is it still the big music magnet?

Speaker 2 (11:24):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 3 (11:24):
In my opinion, like this is where I have to
be for my career. I've been here for three years.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
I moved from the Gold Coast, Australia, So it's a
hard city to adjust to.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
But when you find the right people and the right
team around you that you trust, it's an amazing city to.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Live in.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
Besides like the bad side obviously, But yeah, it was
a hard adjustment, but I've made it my home for sure.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
How long did it take you to really get into
the culture of LA and Hollywood, Because I mean you
can go there as a fan or as a tourist,
but man, when you live there, Oh, now you've got
to get deep inside the saw.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
Yeah, it is a different feeling for sure. I moved
here and I think I just did pretty well.

Speaker 3 (12:07):
I was freshly nineteen and my parents just like dropped
me off, like helped me get an apartment and then dipped.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
So I'm like.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
Here as a freshly nineteen or of never not knowing
one person never living alone ever. So it was a
struggle and it was but I was so excited. I
was so excited to start this new journey. I love
a change. So I did adjust really well. Like I
found my friend group because I went up to a
random guy at a Ralph saying, where's the pancake mix?

(12:36):
And then that night I'm like partying with these like
random group that I see every single weekend. Now, Like
it's weird. I think you just need a lot of confidence.
And when you first move out here for sure.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Well that's the one thing I've always loved about Los
Angeles and Hollywood. If you are weird, that's okay. You
fit right in. It's just and you're going to experience everything.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
That's so true.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Whenever I'm walking around and I have like no makeup
on and the worst out like the most awful outfit,
I'm just like, nah, I fit in.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
I'm one with the homeless at times.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Well, I totally believe the song get Off is going
to really open a door for you, and all of
a sudden they're gonna catch you on the street. You're
gonna go, oh, that's right. I am that musician always.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Oh thank you. That's so sweet.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Where can people go to find out more about you
and to start giving you some love.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
Oh? My Instagram at she is Lucinda and it's like
she is loosener on all platforms. My Spotify is Lucinda Odette,
So you can just search me up for any on
any of those platforms and you'll be able to find
me and find what I'm doing and see my stories
and see a little inside in my life.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
I love it. You got to come back to the
show anytime in the future. The door is always going
to be open for you.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Ah awesome, Thank you will you'd.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
Be brilliant today.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Okay, thank you so much. You too.
