What's up guys? It's Michelle Marie with Young Hollywood. I am here with Pip Brown, aka Lady Hawk. I know that your single delirium is out. Tell us about the concept.

I wrote that when I just come to London for the very first time and uh I had the worst jet lag and I hadn't slept for about three days. I was completely wired and I you know, I couldn't sleep, but I was I was tired, but it was it was a really weird state and I that's what that song's all about. I wrote that while I was completely in need of sleep.

A lot of people, you know, obviously we're like super drawn to your single Paris is Burning and all of your music that has been out has, you know, kind of like a 70s, 80s vibe. How do you like to describe your sound?

Late 70s influence. Um early 80s, but with um definitely with like modern electronic elements to it. So yeah.

I know you have a love for since.

I do. Yeah, since and guitars and sounds.

What is your creative process normally like? Do you like to start off with like the lyrics or do you, you know, look for like beats?

I always start with the music. You know, if I'm demoing something at home, then it'll just be I'll put a beat down and then and then the bass and then I'll just go from there.

Prez Hilton had a lot to do with like all the success you had out here in the US. I mean, he really brought you to the table. How do you feel about what he's done for you as far as the way he blogs about you and talks about what a great artist you are and just really getting your name out there?

Yeah, I'm I mean, yeah, he's really championed it and I'm just um I'm really surprised. I was I didn't even know anyone had heard of me in the states. So um it's just it's just really cool and positive to have somebody um, you know, bringing my music to a wider audience like that.

You're from New Zealand, you lived in London, and now you're here in LA. When did Lady Hawk first come about?

Around 2004, I was in a playing in a band and I was kind of feeling frustrated and a little bit stifled and I wanted to have my own sort of voice and songwriting. So I that's how I started calling myself Lady Hawk.

Where did you come up with this concept Lady Hawk?

Just the movie. Yeah, yeah. It wasn't like a homage to the movie. I just thought the name was really cool.

What is it about the 80s that you were most obsessed with?

Movies and films and all the TV and cartoons and I don't know, just popular culture in general. In the 80s, cuz I was a kid growing up in the 80s. Children are like sponges and I was just soaking up everything around me.

And you grew up, you know, with a musical background. I know you had a stepfather that played the drums and your mother as well. Uh tell me about what it was like growing up.

It was awesome. Uh the my living room was always set up with drums and bass, synths, amps, everything, drum machines, like um it from when I was quite young, so I could always just go in there and, you know, play whatever I wanted.

Hey, Young Hollywood. I'm Lady Hawk. Um thanks so much for all your support out there. I really appreciate it.
