She continued, “And after some late hours in the studio I tried singing it over a track Kiri and I had been playing with. Something clicked for me and felt right, and we just followed that feeling.” Lourdes went on to talk about supporting other artists and creating her own songs.

“I’m usually down to support my friends when they’re playing but much more drawn to the studio lately. I feel like I’m on the verge of something truly profound with what I’m making and have been following that inspiration whenever I can,” she said to Vogue.

It’s an homage to my mother’s timeless piece of art ‘Frozen,’” she explained on social media. “That piece has come up countless times in my life, connecting the two of us. I would be nothing without the woman who brought me into the world. I revere her and hope that this translates.”
