What an absolute honour to chat with Willa Amai, an artist at such a young age making waves around the world with her music and songwriting, sharing her gift and openly speaking about her struggles with anxiety to let people know it’s ok not to be ok.

Coming up on the episode, we hear all about Willa’s journey from the age of 12-years-old, being introduced to multi-platinum, Grammy Award-nominated producer, @reallindaperry
(Pink, Adele, Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera), where she played a fragment of a piece she had written and told to go back within 3 months with 5 more songs.

Not only did she go back, but with 6 songs.

Perry realized there was much more to this young musician and signed her to the label/publishing/management company she co-founded.

We hear all about her ability to put her feelings in to her songwriting, sharing her struggles with anxiety and using the power of that gift to tell her story which has seen her go on to achieve some amazing respect and recognition in the industry.

At 14, Willa won acclaim for her gently breathtaking rendition of Dolly Parton’s “Here You Come Again” (recorded with Dolly herself and featured on the talent filled Dumplin’ soundtrack). Esquire praised the duet as “truly exceptional” and “one of the few moments that an accompanying voice is able to keep up with Parton’s.”

Refinery29 hailed their interaction as “a passing of the torch.”

In addition to her duet with Dolly, Willa had the opportunity to join another of her musical influences when Brandi Carlyle invited her to perform a duet at the Great American Music Hall.

Now 17, Willa has begun sharing her music with the world, showing the extraordinary depth of her narrative voice and the subtle power of her songwriting.

With her eagerly awaited first album ‘I can go to bed whenever’ releasing June 4, produced by Linda Perry and recorded in Los Angeles at Perry’s Greenleaf Studios with the album’s focus track "Too Close" comes out the same day ‼️
