2:06
Speaker 1: and I'm Tiffany Balia. Thank you for being here, Yes,
2:13
Speaker 1: thank you so much for being here. I'm so excited.
2:16
Speaker 1: This has been a long time coming to have you on.
2:19
Speaker 1: Look at that our radio, So very very excited. And
2:23
Speaker 1: just to get us started, I would love if each
2:25
Speaker 1: of you could introduce yourselves and just tell us a
2:29
Speaker 1: little bit about you. So I'm Tori. I'm the lead
2:32
Speaker 1: singer and guitar player of the band, I'm twenty one
2:36
Speaker 1: years old. I went to school for audio engineering, and yeah,
2:41
Speaker 1: that's there's a lot about me. But I'm the youngest.
2:44
Speaker 1: I'm the baby of the band. I'm Sophia and I'm
2:48
Speaker 1: twenty three years old. I'm the drummer of the band.
2:51
Speaker 1: I went to school for marketing and I try to
2:54
Speaker 1: use that for our band, and Tori just like the
2:56
Speaker 1: audio engineering too for the band, so it's cool. And
3:01
Speaker 1: I'm Tiffany. I'm the oldest. I played bass and I
3:05
Speaker 1: went to school for nursing some I'm currently working as
3:08
Speaker 1: a nurse on a cardiovascular and stroke unit, so I
3:13
Speaker 1: canently incorporate that into the band. But yeah you can.
3:19
Speaker 1: If we go on tour, one of us get the
3:21
Speaker 1: medical emergency. Yeah, I love that so much. We need
3:27
Speaker 1: nurses and we need musicians, so it's like so lovely
3:31
Speaker 1: to see um. Tell me about how you fell into
3:34
Speaker 1: these roles specifically in the band, Like how did you
3:37
Speaker 1: decide to pick up these instruments? What's the origin story
3:41
Speaker 1: of being a musical family. So the origin story of
3:44
Speaker 1: being in this musical family is our father was a
3:47
Speaker 1: DJ a long time ago when we were a children,
3:50
Speaker 1: and we followed him around to his gigs and his
3:54
Speaker 1: parties and just really got in tune with so many
3:58
Speaker 1: genres of music. And at a young age, Tiffany picked
4:02
Speaker 1: up piano from our grandmother and was doing that for
4:06
Speaker 1: a while. And then Sophia was put into percussion lessons
4:10
Speaker 1: because she was always a kind of kid that loved
4:13
Speaker 1: to tap on things. And then suddenly there was a
4:17
Speaker 1: guitar in our house and I was really interested in that.
4:20
Speaker 1: And in school, my music teacher played guitar as well,
4:24
Speaker 1: and I was put into lessons. So we were all
4:26
Speaker 1: individually in lessons, and our mother kind of had this
4:31
Speaker 1: great idea of putting us in like a band class
4:36
Speaker 1: with the music academy, and so we just started learning
4:38
Speaker 1: music together and created that sisterhood within music and that bond,
4:44
Speaker 1: and then wrote songs together. And then our mother started
4:48
Speaker 1: managing us because she managed her father with his DJ career,
4:52
Speaker 1: and ever since then we've just been hitting the stage
4:56
Speaker 1: and growing along the years. And we love what thank
5:00
Speaker 1: you so much. That's such a beautiful story, and I
5:03
Speaker 1: love that it speaks to y'all very much doing a
5:08
Speaker 1: little bit of everything, or like being involved in like
5:10
Speaker 1: all the ways down to like the family, and I
5:13
Speaker 1: had the cutest, immense privilege of meeting y'all back in October,
5:20
Speaker 1: and I got to see like the family dynamic and
5:22
Speaker 1: your dad is amazing, and so it's so good to
5:25
Speaker 1: hear that backstory. So tell us about what motivated you
5:29
Speaker 1: to start this band. Did you always want to be musicians?
5:34
Speaker 1: I think it was it's in our blood. I don't
5:36
Speaker 1: know if that sounds like cocky, but I think it's
5:39
Speaker 1: like it's always been in us and the fact that
5:42
Speaker 1: we all played our own instruments. People always made the
5:44
Speaker 1: joke like, oh my gosh, you guys have a band,
5:47
Speaker 1: and we're like, oh wow, we do. Like we're not
5:49
Speaker 1: just the dancers or the singers. We were like radiculed
5:54
Speaker 1: a lot when we were younger. We would show up
5:57
Speaker 1: to the shows and people would be like, oh, like,
6:00
Speaker 1: you guys actually are the band, Like where's your band?
6:02
Speaker 1: You know, and stuff like that. But yeah, our father
6:06
Speaker 1: is really really integrated in this whole like familial musical
6:12
Speaker 1: system that we have going on here. And it was
6:14
Speaker 1: amazing seeing you in October for the music festival. And
6:20
Speaker 1: we're such big fans of the podcast and I am too,
6:22
Speaker 1: and I'm like freaking out right now. I was listening
6:25
Speaker 1: like the podcast all day, trying to catch up on episodes,
6:28
Speaker 1: but I'm going off topic now, No, no, this is
6:33
Speaker 1: this is amazing. We love hearing the backstory, and I
6:37
Speaker 1: want to ask you next, like, what is the inspo
6:40
Speaker 1: behind your name The Tiaras? The inspo behind our name.
6:44
Speaker 1: Our last name is bout Yea, So we took that
6:47
Speaker 1: last part of our last name and just changed the
6:50
Speaker 1: spelling to be the Tiaras. We used to be called
6:53
Speaker 1: the tr Girls because we were performing when I was
6:57
Speaker 1: about like ten years old, Sofia was about twelve and
6:59
Speaker 1: Tiffany was about fourteen, and so we had that kind
7:01
Speaker 1: of girly girl band thing going on. And then a
7:05
Speaker 1: year ago we changed our name to the Trs as
7:08
Speaker 1: we stepped into our own sound and our own womanhood
7:13
Speaker 1: through music and our own lives. So that's kind of
7:16
Speaker 1: how it came about. I first saw you guys on TikTok,
7:21
Speaker 1: and you guys have been killing it on TikTok and
7:23
Speaker 1: so yes, I'm super curious about how you go about
7:29
Speaker 1: deciding what clips you're gonna share and what you're gonna
7:32
Speaker 1: put out there, because there seems to be a science
7:34
Speaker 1: and you all seem to be nailing at you know
7:38
Speaker 1: what's funny about that the videos we plan really hard
7:42
Speaker 1: end up not going anywhere. And then the videos that
7:45
Speaker 1: were like, oh, let's just post this because we have
7:48
Speaker 1: it are the ones that blow up and it's like crazy.
7:51
Speaker 1: And then when it comes to writing a caption and
7:53
Speaker 1: you know, you've got to use a certain hashtags, that
7:56
Speaker 1: takes us probably more time than it does edit a
7:58
Speaker 1: video to like you posted, like we really put our
8:02
Speaker 1: heart and soul in the caption, Like it's hard, and
8:05
Speaker 1: it's hard. At the shows, we try to get the
8:07
Speaker 1: audience to take clips and stuff, but a lot of
8:10
Speaker 1: people will just post their story and never send it
8:12
Speaker 1: to us. But with a few clips that we have
8:15
Speaker 1: gotten from our dad or someone in the crowd, like
8:17
Speaker 1: we try to post those and show people how fun
8:19
Speaker 1: our shows can be and ask people what cities they
8:22
Speaker 1: want us to go to, and it does really well.
8:25
Speaker 1: But it's yeah, literally, the TikTok's and the reels that
8:30
Speaker 1: I'm just like, like in the bathroom, do my business,
8:33
Speaker 1: like one of the most Like those are the clips
8:38
Speaker 1: that do the best. You know, it's that I think
8:40
Speaker 1: that's just the science behind it. You just have to
8:42
Speaker 1: like let go of the expectation and like the need
8:45
Speaker 1: for the validation and just like focus on wanting to
8:48
Speaker 1: connect with your audience. So yeah, that's so real, because
8:52
Speaker 1: that's we definitely get stuck in our head about like
8:55
Speaker 1: what are we posting and there's just so much. There's
8:57
Speaker 1: so much now, right, and we've been for us, like
9:00
Speaker 1: the Instagram was super strong and now we're like pivoting
9:02
Speaker 1: to TikTok like everybody else. And but that's actually how
9:05
Speaker 1: we found y'all was through TikTok. Mala sent me a
9:08
Speaker 1: video of y'all and it was we just loved your
9:12
Speaker 1: sound and we loved we love what y'all are doing.
9:14
Speaker 1: And so Tori, this question is for you. Tell us
9:17
Speaker 1: about your powerhouse anthem, Soichinona. Our powerhouse anthem, Soichingana was
9:24
Speaker 1: written a few years ago just it was inspired by
9:27
Speaker 1: a lot of the women in Austin, Texas and Texas
9:30
Speaker 1: in general that we were surrounded by around the years
9:33
Speaker 1: that we started writing music that was a reflection of
9:37
Speaker 1: our advocacy and our culture, and we saw a lot
9:41
Speaker 1: of women that had small businesses with just like merchandise
9:46
Speaker 1: that had the word chingana on it, and we didn't
9:49
Speaker 1: really know what it meant, and we talked to our
9:51
Speaker 1: grandmother and she was kind of like Andy. Then we
9:58
Speaker 1: learned about the reclamation movement behind it and wanted to
10:01
Speaker 1: jump on that bandwagon with our own music, and so
10:05
Speaker 1: we wrote Twitching Going Up as an anthem for the
10:08
Speaker 1: whole movement, and it's become like one of our biggest songs.
10:12
Speaker 1: And it's beautiful to see a lot of women come
10:15
Speaker 1: to our shows and sing the songs with us and
10:18
Speaker 1: just dance around with their friends. And it has so
10:22
Speaker 1: much meaning. And we got to sing it at a
10:25
Speaker 1: woman's march here and Austin at the Capitol and it
10:28
Speaker 1: was a beautiful moment and it just really like held
10:31
Speaker 1: that essence of what the song is about. So yeah,
10:35
Speaker 1: and Tori, you have such an incredible, powerful voice, really
10:39
Speaker 1: beautiful singing. Do you ever find that maybe people find
10:43
Speaker 1: a clip or find you online and then when they
10:46
Speaker 1: hear the full range and the full song or they
10:48
Speaker 1: see you performing in person, are people surprised? Do they
10:51
Speaker 1: underestimate your ability? I don't know. I mean I've gotten
10:58
Speaker 1: a lot of different moments that people will say I
11:01
Speaker 1: sound like one Stefani or they are kind I guess
11:04
Speaker 1: they are surprised of how low my voice can go
11:06
Speaker 1: and how high it can go. But in the live
11:08
Speaker 1: shows I definitely bring a different energy than the studio versions.
11:13
Speaker 1: Like even my dad will be like, you don't sound
11:16
Speaker 1: like you're a little girl, little girl anymore, but thank
11:20
Speaker 1: you so much for saying that. I think like even
11:24
Speaker 1: since we started, people would see us and then see
11:27
Speaker 1: Tori and how small, like you know, in stature, she is.
11:31
Speaker 1: But then when she sings, her voice is so big
11:35
Speaker 1: and like it you can like see people's faces change,
11:38
Speaker 1: and it's always been like that, so it's like it's
11:41
Speaker 1: really exciting to see. I feel like also when she
11:43
Speaker 1: announces her age on stage, people go crazy about that
11:46
Speaker 1: because they're shops. So I think definitely people are amazed
11:50
Speaker 1: at young you are and how great you are, Sophia.
11:54
Speaker 1: You know, in addition to your amazing performances and talent,
11:58
Speaker 1: y'all also have such a cohesive look, and so I'm
12:01
Speaker 1: wondering how y'all pull your looks together and how do
12:05
Speaker 1: you stay like very much in like in your own
12:08
Speaker 1: individual look, but also create this cohesive look together as
12:12
Speaker 1: a band. I think for sure, Like for every show,
12:15
Speaker 1: we're always coming together to talk about like what clothes
12:18
Speaker 1: we're gonna wear, so we like don't look crazy within
12:21
Speaker 1: like our colors, but so like if we agree on black,
12:25
Speaker 1: it's the color black. But our outfits definitely resemble who
12:29
Speaker 1: we are in a different way, which I love, and
12:31
Speaker 1: I'm sure the crowd notices that too. You can definitely
12:34
Speaker 1: see our personalities. I don't know. I think we're good
12:37
Speaker 1: as staying true to ourselves, but also I think we
12:39
Speaker 1: all compliment each other. Yeah, Like Sofia's style is more
12:44
Speaker 1: like tight skirt, crop top, like more like um fancy,
12:51
Speaker 1: like the kind of vibe. But then Tiffany's like kind
12:57
Speaker 1: of she looks very thin vibe but also like going
13:01
Speaker 1: out in the town the way. And then Tori's like,
13:05
Speaker 1: I'm like the one that likes like she likes to
13:08
Speaker 1: our pants by like a little open top. Yeah, but
13:13
Speaker 1: like still the bag here look Yeah Yeah, I love that,
13:16
Speaker 1: I mean, And that's why I asked this question because
13:19
Speaker 1: I picked up on it when I saw y'all and
13:21
Speaker 1: and when I was prepping for our interview and looking
13:24
Speaker 1: at y'all socials, I could see the different personalities and
13:28
Speaker 1: I saw I was so curious, like how much of
13:30
Speaker 1: that is pre planned? And so it sounds like it's
13:32
Speaker 1: a little bit of both. Yeah, we grew up really
13:35
Speaker 1: into the Cheetah Girls too, and so we loved how
13:39
Speaker 1: I think we might have taken instant from them, honestly,
13:42
Speaker 1: just how Yeah, everyone shows their own true selves, but
13:45
Speaker 1: we try to be cohesive because we're a band, and
13:48
Speaker 1: I'm jealous of the bands that like can wear whatever
13:50
Speaker 1: they want on stage and so look like yeah, cool,
13:54
Speaker 1: But we just think too hard. We think too hard
13:57
Speaker 1: when we want to be organized. There's a uniform to it.
14:00
Speaker 1: I love it. Yeah, you guys really pull it all
14:02
Speaker 1: off beautifully, Tiffany, So you guys are genre defying and
14:07
Speaker 1: your music is a mix of everything. How would you
14:10
Speaker 1: guys describe and define your sound? I feel like recently
14:14
Speaker 1: we've been like saying we're alternative Latin pop rock, I guess.
14:21
Speaker 1: But I also I feel like the way we explain
14:25
Speaker 1: ourselves is always changing but also always shrinking down a
14:29
Speaker 1: little bit, like we would have we be like, oh
14:32
Speaker 1: we play we're alternative Latin um like we would all
14:41
Speaker 1: your Spotify genre. So like we are slowly trying to,
14:47
Speaker 1: you know, I guess, I don't know, maybe create our
14:51
Speaker 1: own little name of our genre, but it's hard. I
14:57
Speaker 1: think like our dad being a DJ is like what
15:00
Speaker 1: influenced us to have such a wide range of genres
15:04
Speaker 1: that we like to pick from. But I think that's
15:06
Speaker 1: the thing that's going on with like younger Latin artists
15:10
Speaker 1: that are like Icanas or Latin American. I think like
15:14
Speaker 1: we just picked from every single thing that has influenced
15:17
Speaker 1: our lives, and so a lot of us are genre
15:21
Speaker 1: defined and we have we all have that issue. Yeah,
15:27
Speaker 1: I would imagine that, you guys, because the Texas elements,
15:31
Speaker 1: the siblings, the band, all those things combined. Like I
15:35
Speaker 1: would imagine people have made comparisons to obviously Selena, Elosbinos
15:38
Speaker 1: and Lost Lonely Boys, right, like, yes, yes, no, Selena
15:44
Speaker 1: is like one of our biggest inspirations Lost Lonely Boys.
15:47
Speaker 1: We got to like be in touch with them and
15:49
Speaker 1: go to a few of their shows and learn about
15:52
Speaker 1: their story and a long time ago we got to
15:54
Speaker 1: meet ab Qinthia the brother and the original Ab her
15:59
Speaker 1: father other and just got to really talk to them
16:02
Speaker 1: and connect with them. But Selena has really been like
16:06
Speaker 1: the blueprint for us since we were little, and does
16:11
Speaker 1: everything about her as influenced us in our personal lives
16:14
Speaker 1: and and within our musical lives. So we give thanks
16:18
Speaker 1: to her like all the time. So I love that. Yeah,
16:26
Speaker 1: we give thanks over here all the time. Can you
16:28
Speaker 1: guys tell us a little bit about like your creative process.
16:31
Speaker 1: How does a song come together? Like from the ground up?
16:35
Speaker 1: So a song for us, um usually starts with me.
16:39
Speaker 1: I kind of take my sisters into account, whether it
16:43
Speaker 1: be a story, a feeling that we're talking about, a lot,
16:47
Speaker 1: a theme, and I kind of just create a guitar,
16:51
Speaker 1: a chord progression and melody and some lyrics that are
16:54
Speaker 1: in my notes, and then I go over to our
16:56
Speaker 1: producer and we start creating a demo, and my sisters
17:00
Speaker 1: kind of create their parts and help me with lyrics
17:04
Speaker 1: and melodies and stuff like that, and then we just
17:07
Speaker 1: start recording and practicing, and then we end up playing
17:10
Speaker 1: it and it's it's scary because it's like our own
17:14
Speaker 1: baby and we love it so much, and then we
17:17
Speaker 1: have to give it out into the world and it's
17:19
Speaker 1: not ours anymore, not fully ours anymore. But it usually
17:23
Speaker 1: starts with that, like a very like in the bedroom
17:28
Speaker 1: just writing your own kind of stuff and then you
17:31
Speaker 1: set it out free. That's real. Yeah, you have to
17:35
Speaker 1: let the art into the world. You have to let
17:37
Speaker 1: it be you, the let a breathe. You got to
17:39
Speaker 1: share it. Yeah, yeah, I mean, and speaking of y'all
17:43
Speaker 1: are having an amazing year already. I mean, we're barely
17:46
Speaker 1: at the top of March and you're performing at south
17:49
Speaker 1: By Southwest and you're recording an album. So tell us
17:52
Speaker 1: what you're able to share with us. We're so excited
17:55
Speaker 1: for you. Tell us more. Well, we're gonna be posting
17:59
Speaker 1: our south By show, so look out for that. We
18:01
Speaker 1: have a good juicy list. I really like the shows
18:05
Speaker 1: we got this year. They're gonna be super fun. And
18:08
Speaker 1: we have announced cover coming out, which is March seventh,
18:13
Speaker 1: I believe. Yes, yes, So that's a good hit right there.
18:16
Speaker 1: That's why we went viral for multiple times. TikTok showed
18:20
Speaker 1: us so much love, so we want to show it
18:22
Speaker 1: back and we use the cover now they TikTok literally
18:25
Speaker 1: like puts us into the studio. Yeah, and yes, we're
18:31
Speaker 1: still working on that album, trying to make it perfect
18:33
Speaker 1: because this is our first album. This is really like,
18:35
Speaker 1: we're really nervous about it. It's a culmination of everything
18:39
Speaker 1: that we've done so far. And we are signed with
18:44
Speaker 1: a label and a management now for the past couple
18:46
Speaker 1: of years, so that support has been really really helpful.
18:50
Speaker 1: And just having so many new fans that are coming
18:53
Speaker 1: in every single day from all over the place is
18:55
Speaker 1: really overwhelming. We hope to be in La soon go
18:59
Speaker 1: back over there, and we're just working hard and doing
19:02
Speaker 1: the best kin. Yeah, it definitely shows. I mean I
19:06
Speaker 1: have a follow up question because you mentioned how do
19:10
Speaker 1: you decide what covers you're going to cover? I mean,
19:14
Speaker 1: clearly your musical family, your genre defying, there's so much
19:18
Speaker 1: to pick from, So how do you decide what covers
19:21
Speaker 1: you're gonna cover? Well, definitely, like we said, like the
19:24
Speaker 1: TikTok Love really pushed us to do it. Also, just
19:28
Speaker 1: the vibes when we're performing it live, it's so fun,
19:32
Speaker 1: the crowd is so fun, the way they react to it.
19:35
Speaker 1: It's just we had like it was an easy answer
19:38
Speaker 1: of which one to cover, It was definitely the Nex. Yeah,
19:40
Speaker 1: But I think initially, like when we started, we chose
19:45
Speaker 1: the song to cover a long time ago. It was
19:47
Speaker 1: our dad who was listening to it in the car
19:49
Speaker 1: and he like was hearing Sophia's like cowbell and stuff,
19:54
Speaker 1: and then he kept put like not pushing it, but
19:58
Speaker 1: like have like hinting that look at those videos, yeah,
20:02
Speaker 1: like another band covering it, Like oh, you guys could
20:04
Speaker 1: like look, you guys could do it this way, like yeah,
20:07
Speaker 1: you know, like picking up different things. And then like finally,
20:12
Speaker 1: I don't know, we just learned it, and I was like,
20:13
Speaker 1: oh my god, I love it. Yeah, I think. I think.
20:16
Speaker 1: Also when I looked up the song, I was like, oh,
20:18
Speaker 1: I know this song, and then I realized it was
20:21
Speaker 1: from that scene in Selina where she's like goes to
20:24
Speaker 1: Mexico for the first time. And then I started learning
20:27
Speaker 1: the guitar parts. And then there's a solo in there
20:31
Speaker 1: that's like kind of hard, and so I was trying
20:32
Speaker 1: to learn that by ear. And then we started playing
20:35
Speaker 1: it live and people crazy, and so we were like,
20:39
Speaker 1: let's just make this song longer, and so we added
20:41
Speaker 1: like a jam section where we're just playing like Pumbia
20:44
Speaker 1: riffs and stuff like that. And so with this new
20:47
Speaker 1: song that's coming out, we just added our own twist
20:50
Speaker 1: onto the classic and we hope that people will receive
20:53
Speaker 1: it well, and we're just so excited to to dance
20:57
Speaker 1: with everyone the shows, like when we released it and
21:01
Speaker 1: blessed it. So is your dad like your manager? Oh,
21:07
Speaker 1: I would say so, I mean I will get I'm
21:10
Speaker 1: gonna give him so much credit because a lot of
21:12
Speaker 1: the good ideas that we've had come from this man,
21:15
Speaker 1: like and all the success is because of that man
21:18
Speaker 1: and our mother, Like if we would not be where
21:20
Speaker 1: we are today without them, and we're so fortunate to
21:23
Speaker 1: have our parents back us the way they do. Oh yeah,
21:25
Speaker 1: that's awesome. Yes, it's a family affair. It is, of course,
21:31
Speaker 1: that's super cool. So on a scale from like manager parent,
21:36
Speaker 1: from like Abraham Kinthenia to Chris Jenner like that spectrum
21:42
Speaker 1: that's a horrible star trunk girl. No, I think he's
21:45
Speaker 1: a good mix. He like really has our best interest
21:49
Speaker 1: at heart. And it's so rare to find because even
21:52
Speaker 1: growing up along the side a lot of other younger
21:55
Speaker 1: mans um locally, they didn't stick around because their parents
21:59
Speaker 1: were very supportive and they wanted them to get real jobs.
22:02
Speaker 1: But real jobs, I say in quotation works with my fingers,
22:05
Speaker 1: But no, he our parents are always trying to tell
22:10
Speaker 1: us to keep a balance and to really dive into
22:13
Speaker 1: what fills our heart and what gives us a passion
22:17
Speaker 1: for life, which is music and sisterhood. And so we
22:21
Speaker 1: just really want to keep doing it forever as long
22:24
Speaker 1: as we can, and they support that. I will say
22:26
Speaker 1: our dad gives Chris Jenner vibes during the performance the
22:32
Speaker 1: camera You're doing amazing seeking dancing behind it. He's like,
22:36
Speaker 1: you know the thing she does on the he's literally
22:40
Speaker 1: doing that. I love that. Yeah, yeah, or like a
22:45
Speaker 1: Tina knowls that's a really good manager, mom, Tina knowlesons,
22:49
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, he'll be up there. He'll be
22:51
Speaker 1: he'll be one of the legends. Yeah, I hope so
22:54

Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you for tuning in. We do have
23:16
Speaker 1: a final question to sort of wrap up our conversation today.
23:19
Speaker 1: So we consider look at our radio to be an
23:21
Speaker 1: audio archive, and we wanted to ask each of you
23:25
Speaker 1: if your future selves were to come back and listen
23:27
Speaker 1: to this interview in five years, ten years, what would
23:31
Speaker 1: you want to say to your future self right now
23:34
Speaker 1: on this episode. Oh my gosh, I'm gonna try, It's
23:36
Speaker 1: all I want to do. I would say, to remain
23:42
Speaker 1: grateful for everything for yourself, and to have compassion, and
23:49
Speaker 1: to dream, and to focus on everything that's good, because
23:53
Speaker 1: there's so much bad in the world and so much
23:56
Speaker 1: unnecessary bad that we hold on too. Just to keep
23:59
Speaker 1: growing and to keep loving, because love is really like
24:03
Speaker 1: the only thing that can ground us for our whole lives.
24:07
Speaker 1: So focus on that future, Sophia, I hope you've made
24:13
Speaker 1: an impact on other female drummers the way that I
24:17
Speaker 1: want you right now, other young female drummers. I hope
24:21
Speaker 1: that you've let go of the idea that just because
24:24
Speaker 1: someone's older and they're behind the drum set, that doesn't
24:26
Speaker 1: make them better than you. You're capable of a lot
24:29
Speaker 1: more than you think, and you're amazing and I love you.
24:32
Speaker 1: In five years, my future self is creative in a
24:37
Speaker 1: different way. I've pushed myself out of my my little
24:41
Speaker 1: box that sometimes I find myself in. I'll be proud
24:44
Speaker 1: of myself if we are still making music and impacting
24:48
Speaker 1: people and that we have an album out. I hope
24:56
Speaker 1: that's a great message. Yes, I love all of these.
