North London DIY Icon Delilah Holliday once said she writes songs to make people feel less alone. Her band, Skinny Girl Diet, which she founded at the age of 14 with her sister Ursula and their cousin Amelia reignited a much needed Riot Grrl punk spirit, galvanising a community of like minded music lovers back in the early 2010s. Moving more recently into a lo-fi, electronic and soulful sound, developing her production style along with it and collaborating with Neneh Cherry, Vivienne Westwood and former guest of the show, Baxter Dury, she talks with Paul about her creative process, overcoming doubt, finding transformation and ponders what would a song sound like if it was left out in the sun.
Delilah Holliday’s new EP ‘Invaluable Vol. 1’, on 7th July on One Little Independent Records.
