This is part 2 of Lina's interview with South London-based singer-songwriter Claudia Kate. Claudia is an indie pop artist whose DIY sound is imbued with elements of spoken word, reminiscent of Baby Queen as well as Brit-nominated artist Self Esteem. Claudia artfully sets her sincere lyrics, underpinned with existential and political angst, to upbeat rhythms and vibrant melodies, promoting a sense of optimism at a time when we need it most. 

Claudia is passionate about helping people feel good about themselves, and about creating a community surrounding female empowerment through her music. She describes her music as “made in a bedroom, to be danced to in a bedroom”. Claudia has been consistently supported by BBC Introducing throughout her career, and recently made her Radio 1 debut with her single ‘Fizzy’. She just released her latest single, ‘Good God’, which is now available to listen to on all major streaming platforms, and her EP 'Going Places' is out on the 17th Feb!

Hello, I'm Lina Adams, and this is the very first episode of Creative License: Inside the Worlds of Rising Artists! In this episode, I chat to young Irish talent Conor Kinsella about his experiences of studying music at undergrad and how this has impacted his passion for music. We also talk about everything from cleaning your room, to optimistic nihilism, to the importance of good friends. Conor is the lead singer and guitarist of Dublin-based indie-rock band Speakers.

Hi, my name's Lina Adams, and this is a brief introduction to Creative License: Inside the Worlds of Rising Artists! I started this podcast because I wanted to chat to artists about their experiences of navigating the creative sector during a very challenging time. In a period of financial and mental turmoil, brought on by the pandemic as well as Brexit, there is no shortage of troubles for the young artist trying to make ends meet. My hope is to foster a sense of community spirit; while this is a bit of a crappy time, we're not in this alone. 

I also want to explore the wonders of the creative process, and gain fresh perspectives from everyone I speak to. 

You can click through to listen to the first episode now, recorded with my talented friend, Dublin's very own Conor Kinsella! :)
