Episode Synopsis

Our guest today on the podcast is the legendary UK artist M.I.A. — a Grammy, Academy, and Mercury Prize-nominated musician who first burst onto the scene in 2005 with her groundbreaking debut Arular. This very special bonus episode was recorded live at Harvest Rock Festival in Adelaide. Over the past two decades, M.I.A. has released six genre-defying records that blend politics, identity, and personal truth, performed at the Super Bowl, and created one of the most defining songs of the 21st century, Paper Planes. Back in Australia for the first time since 2019, she’s performing at Harvest Rock and a handful of headline shows in Melbourne and Sydney. In this episode, recorded backstage at the festival, we chat with M.I.A. about her lasting influence on global music, the return of indie sleaze, the energy of festival crowds versus headline shows, and how she first discovered her passion for songwriting.M.I.A. : Instagram / SpotifyBuy tickets to M.I.A.'s remaining Aussie tour dates hereVisit our official website here and follow us across our socials.
