I absolutely LOVED working with Andrew Lane. I feel that his winning touch makes the song and helped curve the expertise shape of “Finally”. Andrew really listened to all our creative ideas and then put his magic to work. The experience of working with Andrew is amazing. I could not imagine working with anyone else on “Finally”.
Can you tell us about the recording process at Drew Right Studios? Were there any memorable moments in the studio while creating this track?
Working at Drew Right Studios has so many memories especially because this studio was my very first place where I recorded my music. Andrew takes everything and makes it such a fun and cool experience for which I am so grateful. Memories that I will never forget for sure.
You co-wrote the song with some incredible talent. How did working with Andrew Lane, Tess Monepere, and Rex James IV help bring out the best in your songwriting?
Working with Andrew, Tess and Rex was so fun. The laughter we all shared to the seriousness of the creative process as I said, has been such a positive experience that has actually inspired me to want to create more music. Definitely a magical experience!
Country music has a unique storytelling aspect. How did you approach blending your personal story into the narrative of “Finally” while keeping it relatable to a broader audience?
My family and I have always loved all types of music, but we especially love country music. So, it was not difficult to decide to make “Finally” a country song. I absolutely love the way it turned out and I am very excited to have you all hear it.
How does the sound and production of Finally compare to your previous work, especially your recent track Fake Friends?
That is a difficult question to answer since they are so different from each other. “Finally” is a country song and “Fake Friends” is Indy pop. I love all kinds of different music genres. I love the idea that I can sing in different genres.
