Saint Lucia's frontman on why simple pop ideas hit hard, what home means after living in South Africa, Liverpool, and New York, and how pain shapes the color of his songs. He stresses owning your website so platforms don't misrepresent you, and describes the electric magic of live performance when everything connects on stage.
What I love about pop music is it's communicating to such a wide group of people a very simple idea, but that can also be very, very powerful. Home is kind of a difficult concept. I lived in South Africa until I was 19, and then I moved to Liverpool in England, and after that I moved to New York. And maybe that's why I'm having difficulties with the lyrics to my new song. When I actually finish a song, it feels amazing. By that point, I've normally been through so much pain and torture, but I think that that's what gives colour to a song. A website is a great way to expand upon your aesthetic. You have so many websites and stuff who are writing about you. Often they'll misrepresent you in some way, and maybe that's to do with my accent. I don't know. Your own website is your own way to explain who you are. When everything connects, we're having a great time on stage. The moment almost has this electricity and this magic to it. We're Saint Lucia, and this is our Squarespace.
