About this episode
Singer-songwriter Ada Lea needed a break from music: she was physically exhausted from tour, and she was mentally stuck in a circle of overcriticizing her own songs. But after taking some time off, she’s found a multitude of paths to rekindle her creativity. Ada Lea tells guest host Gill Deacon about her new single “Bob Dylan’s 115th Haircut”, her songwriting community, and why she feels like the goal of the music industry is at odds with the goal of the artist.
