(1/2) This conversation was held in February 2022. Olivia DeToma is an indie artist everyone should listen to and press play on their mental health walk. I personally listen to her and sometimes can’t believe that I am presumably the only one in my friends’ circle who knows her. Anyway, if you’re looking for an artist under <100 monthly listeners, make sure you check out Olivia!

In this interview, we talk about her musical journey, how she made it from Massachusetts to LA and of course, her latest single “push”; what her favourite lyric is, she breaks down the making of the song and much more.

Tune in next Wednesday for another conversation with Olivia that I had recently where we touch base more on how it is to be an independent artist nowadays in times of TikTok and Spotify playlists.

Ginger Rodriguez is a name in the Austin indie music scene and a singer-songwriter & producer the whole world should know at some point in the future. After witnessing her musical journey for some years already, I invited her onto the podcast to talk about her single “La Rose de Guadalupe”. This is the second part of the interview where we touch base on the song-writing process, her influences for her upcoming album “Pop Cult” and how live performing really depends on the audience. We also talk a lot about Texas and pop culture and in the middle there, I announce my poetry collection - howdy! Please make sure to follow Ginger on her socials and enjoy this wonderful conversation I had with her!

Part 1 is already out everywhere you’re listening to podcasts.

Isabella Ardell is a kind and lovely legend I think everyone should invite to join their podcast for an episode. She is a magazine owner, jewelry maker and started sewing at the age of 7 (!!) In this episode, we deep dived talking about her creative path, what's her favourite part about being an artist and how moving out and adulthood as a "newbie" is hard to manage. As two publishers were at the same place, we also touched on the topic of printing, focusing on zines and books, and how important it is that artists understand and support each other as parts of society still need time getting our POV and understanding which impact they could make on an artist's life with sharing and purchasing their art. Speaking of which, you can find Isabella's jewelry, magazine issues, stickers and textiles such as tote bags, pillows & more on isabellaardell.com and you can follow her on social media @isabellaardell / @ardellmagazine and on TikTok as well :)
