HOLLY T IS SO NICE TO SEE YOU, I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU ARE HERE,
WHEREABOUTS IN THE WORLD ARE YOU JOINING US FROM RIGHT NOW?
>> I'M CURRENTLY IN LONDON.
IN AN APARTMENT, MY WI-FI AT HOME IS NOT COOPERATING SO HERE
I AM.

DOWN YOU WANT TO CALL IT A FLAT, THAT IS WHAT IT IS.
NOW CONGRATULATIONS ON EVERYTHING THAT HAS BEEN
HAPPENING IN YOUR LIFE, YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED AN ARTIST TO WATCH
OF 2021.
I FEEL LIKE WITH EVERY PASSING DAY MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE
SHARING YOUR INCREDIBLE SONGS, HOW ARE YOU FEELING SEEING YOUR
WORK BEING RECEIVED THIS WELL?
>> HONESTLY, IT'S BEEN LOOK A REAL SURREAL YEAR.
I FEEL LIKE EVERYTHING HAS BEEN ONLINE AND ALL MY INTERACTIONS
HAVE BEEN OVER SOCIAL MEDIA SO IT HAS OPINION REALLY WEIRD BUT
ALSO REALLY COOL TO SEE THAT PEOPLE IN BRAZIL ARE MESSAGING
THINGS LIKE I LOVE YOUR MUSIC, WHICH IS CRAZY.
I THINK IT WILL BE EVEN WEIRDER WHEN I GET TO GET OUT AND DO
LIVE SHOWS AND MEET PEOPLE.
I THINK THAT WILL BE-- .
>> James: IT IS GOING TO BE INCREDIBLE.
YOU WILL WALK OUT AND SUDDENLY YOU WILL BE LIKE OH, I WENT IN A
YEAR AGO, HAD LOCKDOWN FOR A YEAR AND NOW THE WHOLE WORLD
OUTSIDE OF THIS FLAT HAS CHANGED.
THERE ARE SO MANY INCREDIBLE THINGS.
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I'M A MAGAZINESSIVE FAN
OF YOURS AND A HUGE FAN OF THE 1975.
AND THERE IS A RUMOR GOING AROUND THAT YOU AND MATT HALEY,
THE FRONT MAN OF THAT BAND HAVE WRITTEN A SONG TOGETHER.
IS THIS TRUE?
WHAT CAN YOU TELL US AND WHEN CAN WE HEAR IT?
>> YES, I CAN ACTUALLY TELL YOU THAT THIS IS IN FACT TRUE.
I STILL CAN'T QUITE BELIEVE IT THAT I EVEN GOT THE CHANCE TO
WORK WITH, LIKE, MATTY WHICH IS SO KOOVMENT I THINK HE'S GOT
SOME CRAZY FANS.
AND THEY, LIKE, MUST HAVE FOUND LIKE THE NAME OF THE SONG
ON-- ON THE DEEP DARK WEB AND YEAH, SO YEAH, IF YOU LOOK ON
THE PERFORMANCE I'M DOING TONIGHT YOU MIGHT SEE A FEW
LILIESER EGGS AND FEW LITTLE CLUES TO THAT SONG.
>> James: WHEN WILL WE HEAR THAT SONG?
WHEN WILL WE HEAR IT?
>> IT IS GOING TO BE A PART OF MY NEXT EP WHICH SHOULD BE
COMING OUT HOPEFULLY IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS.
>> James: THAT IS SO EXCITING.
AND THE SONG YOU ARE GOING TO PERFORM TONIGHT IS ONE OF MY
FAVORITE SONGS OF THE YEAR, FALLING ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL.
AND TELL EVERYONE WHO HASN'T HEARD IT YET, WHAT IS THE SONG
ABOUT?
>> IT WAS LIKE A BIT OF A LIGHT BULL BE MOMENT WHEN I WROTE THIS
BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT I FOUND, THIS IS ME.
I HAD LIKE A VISUAL OF DRIVING OR SOMETHING, SO YOU WANT TO
FEEL LIKE A MUSIC VIDEO AND I REALIZE I CAN'T ACTUALLY DRIVE
BECAUSE I FAILED MY TEST, A NUMBER OF TIMES.
>> James: IS THAT BECAUSE YOU FELL ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL.
THAT WILL LEAD TO A FAILURE.
>> YEAH, I DIDN'T DO THAT.
I DIDN'T.
IT WASN'T THAT BAD.
BUT THE VIDEOS FOR THE EP KIND OF TOLD A BIT OF A STORY, SO I
DREAMT I GOT A CAR AND WAS ON THE RUN FOR A BIT AND THE
PERFORMANCE THAT I AM GOING TO DO FOR YOU TONIGHT IS LIKE THE
FINAL BIT OF THAT LITTLE STORY.
SO YEAH, I HOPE YOU LIKE IT.
>> James: THAT IS AMAZING, WE ARE GOING TO LOVE IT,
CONGRATULATIONS ON EVERYTHING THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN YOUR
LIFE, AND THANK YOU FOR GRACING US WITH THIS BRILLIANT
PERFORMANCE.
