A HEAD OF HER INDIA DEBUT AT MUSIC festival lollapalooza India which was held at Mumbai's Mahalakshmi Race Course this past weekend, we caught up with American singer-songwriter and producer Chelsea Cutler. The artist talked to us about how her music began to gain traction, reflected on her two albums that are out, being in India, what's in store next and more. Read excerpts below:
I want to take you back to when "Your Shirt" gained momentum. What was that feeling like for you when things started to snowball, and people began to pay attention to what you were doing?
It was crazy, I mean I was still in college. I didn't even really know that music could be a viable thing for me. Seeing it get traction kind of started to plant the seed in my brain like, 'oh man, you could really, do music if you want.' So that was pretty mind-blowing.
You released your debut album How to Be Human in 2020. What was it like for you to have that full body of work out after releasing singles and EPs?
I think to be able to put together 16 songs on How to Be Human, that large and comprehensive of a project, felt like you’re just letting go of this massive weight that you’ve been working on for a long time. I was really proud of it.
Was the process different compared to what you had done previously?
