Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that isn\u2019t broken, it\u2019s golden.\nThis week Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with multi-platinum singer-songwriter, LP (@iamlpofficial), to discuss their brand new album Love Lines and highly anticipated North American Tour. For those who have not yet had a chance to listen to LP\u2019s 7th studio album, Leigh describes the songs as shiny and having a \u2018brightness\u2019 to them. This tracks with LP\u2019s own statement of the album feeling like a kind of rebirth, working with a new team to create introspective songs that get really honest about LP\u2019s life experiences. There is an ease to the sound reminiscent of mellow days spent kicking back in a nice California hotel and taking stock of your life.\nWe talk with LP about their songwriting process (a process that is wildly fast- in the time it took you to read this sentence, LP has probably written another song). We also discuss what it is like to be a musician while being visibly \u201cthe biggest dyke alive\u201d. We chat about the challenges (and pros) of tour bus life, the horrors of being in a public relationship and going through a breakup, the unfortunate ageism plaguing the music industry (yet somehow doing absolutely nothing to hinder the careers of old white male musicians), and how LP managed to beat Warner Brothers at their own game by bringing their songs over to an indie label and becoming more successful than ever.\nCheck out LP\u2019s Love Lines wherever you like to listen to music and watch them perform all your favorite songs live on tour: https://www.iamlp.com/tour.\nFollow us on Twitter: Lez Hang Out (@lezhangoutpod) and answer our Q & Gay questions at the end of every episode.
