This week, I’m joined by songwriter and pop artist Lily Kincade, who steps into the studio to talk about her long-awaited debut album, Cinematic — a project years in the making. We dive into the lore behind the music: the characters, the easter eggs, the hidden storytelling woven through every track, and the personal moments that shaped the record. Lily opens up about her ten–year journey — from writing songs in her bedroom to crafting a fully realized world through her art — and what it means to finally bring her story to life on her own terms. If you love world-building pop, nostalgia-soaked lyrics, and artists who blur the line between film and music, this episode is for you. Welcome to the Lily Kincade Cinematic Universe.
