In this episode of MyMusic, Graham Coath sits down with Sierra Veins for a conversation that moves far beyond genre and into identity, intensity and what it really means to evolve as an artist.
Broadcasting from France, SIERRA VEINS reflects on her transition from SIERRA to a new name rooted in blood, inheritance and self-definition, a change that mirrors the core themes of her latest work. As she explains, the shift wasn’t just practical or aesthetic. It was personal. It was necessary.
Together they explore the emotional architecture of her music, the tension between aggression and vulnerability, how sound can rewrite parts of your story, and how identity is shaped by both what we inherit and what we choose. The conversation touches on:
Why did the themes become central to her artistic direction..
Reconnecting with the “little girl” who first played the synthesiser at two years old.
Touring major stages while remaining intensely inward.
Why scoring a dark, dystopian film remains her biggest dream
There’s humour here too, from VR mishaps to merch ideas, but at its heart, this is a discussion about intensity, reinvention and accepting that some parts of us never truly disappear.
As Graham asks in his closing question:
If identity is written in the blood… can we ever really become someone new?
