Welcome to Young Hollywood. you're gonna love me like I. Oh darling, you can just take take take your time. And I've been burning up like a wildfire wishin' you would just say say say your mind. So we got the performer of the day Kay Vogle. How are you doing?

Kate Voegele

I'm great, how are you?

Young Hollywood

What was the inspiration for you behind the album?

Kate Voegele

The inspiration for my new album, it's called Gravity Happens, and I moved from Ohio to California like a year and a half ago and I started writing this. And it was, yeah, it's a big move because it's different. The record is fun and summery and but it's also very deep and honest and kind of rootsy.

Young Hollywood

What would you say was your favorite? Take it in my.

Kate Voegele

My favorite song is a song called Sandcastles, which is a song about I was walking on the beach and I saw a bunch of little kids who were making sandcastles and I was going through some challenging stuff in my life and I thought, wow, it's a lot easier to make sandcastles than make some of these adult life decisions right now. But the song's about how, you know, even though sometimes we wish we were a kid, you know, what kind of pulls you through the growing up stuff is music, or at least for me, it's music.

Young Hollywood

So, whose musically influenced you as you're coming up as a musician?

Kate Voegele

I grew up on stuff that my parents loved, like Eric Clapton, James Taylor, Carol King, these are like classic organic songwriter. People who just sort of evoke this, this raw folks sound that could have been popular kind of any time in history.

Young Hollywood

I just can't stop staring at your glasses.

Kate Voegele

Thank you. I'm obsessed with these right now. Basically what I did was I used some of the drawings and paintings that inspired my new album artwork. Oakley was like, let's take those designs and turn them into a signature sunglasses.

Young Hollywood

Do you have a dream collaboration? Somebody that you could work with, who would it be?

Kate Voegele

Right now, I'm really obsessed with Eddie Vedder. And I mean, I've always been obsessed with Eddie Vedder and God, he's just so good. So that would be like my pie in the sky collaboration.
