P. 8
BiTS: When you went into the studio, was it all there? Did you do any changes in the
studio?
LE: Well, I kind of did it piece by piece, but we did it quite quickly. Yeah, I worked with a
great producer in London called Ian Barter, and we worked really well together. Obviously,
it was a lot of back and forth and it wasn't, you know, two weeks and then you're done. It
was like we started in October 2024 and then finally by the end of January it was all done
with a lot of back and forth.
BiTS: Right. You write a lot of your songs yourself. How do you go about doing that?
LE: Yeah, I co-write everything. I had loads of ideas for this new album with what I wanted
to write, and I worked with some great co-writers. So yeah, I mean, I love writing songs.
I don't tend to not take any of the songs on unless I write them. So yeah, every song was
hand-picked and really crafted with a lot of kind of detail and care.
BiTS: Do you write with an instrument? Do you play a guitar or piano while you're writing?
LE: Yeah, I do play guitar a little and I write a lot with my husband who is an amazing
guitarist and then I wrote a lot with my producer Ian. He has a studio and plays lots of
instruments. So yeah, we work really well together.
BiTS: Do you have a favourite track on the album?
LE: Oh, one of my absolute favourites is ‘Superman’. It's actually not as popular as the
other songs that have been released but yes ‘Superman’ I think it's one of my favourite
songs on the album. I wrote it quite quickly.
BiTS: I’ve heard a couple of them. There’s a few about at the moment before the album
comes out. I think ‘ATM’ is an absolutely terrific song. The rhythm is fantastic.
LE: Yeah, yeah I had a lot of fun writing that song as well.
BiTS: Absolutely terrific stuff. Who do you consider are your influences?
LE: You know, I've got lots of influences, actually. I'm a big, big fan of a band called Larkin
Poe.
BiTS: Ooh, I love Larkin Poe.
LE: Yeah, amazing. Obviously, I love old school artists like Bonnie Raitt and people like
Aretha Franklin and, you know, the Tedeschi Trucks Band and stuff like that, old school.
But I love lots of modern singers, too. You know, I love Adele. I love Alicia Keys. There's
an amazing national artist called Maggie, Maggie Rose, who I love. So, it's a complete mixed
bag for me at the minute. I just think there's so much great music actually out there.
BiTS: There certainly is, that's absolutely true. Tell me about the tour. When does that
start? Where are you going?
LE: Yes, so my UK headline tour starts in November. We're starting in Cardiff on the 6th
of November. And then we head to Manchester, Sheffield, Newcastle, Kent, and London.
