Between The Lines - Messy by Lola Young

Finding, and exploring, the magic in creativity, whilst also demystifying its craft.

We're back! But, this time, with a twist. Our Between The Lines series of podcasts will be an opportunity for us to nerd out on some of our favourite songs, finding lessons and techniques that can help all us songwriters develop our craft.

In this debut episode of Between The Lines we’re diving into Messy by Lola Young. You can check out the track here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-k2_Liofy8

We mainly focus on the lyrics and vocals from this upcoming Pop Pioneer, but also touch on production and structure, including the controversial choice to scrap the MIDDLE EIGHT!

When running our songwriting camps we often use our favourite songs as jumping off points to talk about music theory, songwriting as a craft and as inspiration, to show our artists that what they’re engaging with is as accessible to them, as it is to the original artist. So, that’s exactly what we’re doing here! Stay tuned for more songs, alternating with guests, and feel free to send us over any recommendations!
