The highlights are below:<\/p>\n<p>\nWhat&#8217;s your fav place for writing lyrics? &#8220;<strong>Ohhhh, anywhere I&#8217;m writing something worth while?<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nHow different will this new album be compared to your others? &#8220;<strong>Good question.. It&#8217;s definitely an experimental, different sound when it comes to how we recorded it.. which was live off the floor!<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nWhen are you planning on touring again? &#8220;<strong>As soon as I have a record I&#8217;m happy with, I can then plan out my next steps&#8230; this album process has been.. interesting.<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nWill you be doing any sort of kickstarter\/pledge campaign for this album? &#8220;<strong>I won&#8217;t be&#8230; but I will most likely be launching pre-sales!<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nHow many songs are on the upcoming album? &#8220;<strong>9-10 with potential bonus tracks&#8230;<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nAre you coming to Argentina soon? &#8220;<strong>I am planning a tour in South America for early 2018!!<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nDoes the phrase &#8220;Tears of a Dragon&#8221; refer to anything or did you make it up? &#8220;<strong>The pain in this world&#8230; how powerless we really are. It can be refreshing to let go sometimes.<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nAny favorite memory from this writing process?! &#8220;<strong>Recording the album on my homeland of Canada was pretty special.. it definitely lent itself to the sound, I think..<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nDo you keep in touch with any of the FD3 cast? &#8220;<strong>Kris Lemche is a good friend \ud83d\ude42<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nCan u release some more signed Heart EPs? &#8220;<strong>I have a big shipment of more signed &#038; unsigned merch on its way to my store as we speak! I will keep you posted!<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nAre you happy to be back in NYC? &#8220;<strong>I adore this city. I am working on many different projects&#8230; I&#8217;m excited to see them come to fruition!<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nHave you thought singing in Spanish? &#8220;<strong>That&#8217;s a great idea&#8230;.<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nWhat was the hardest part of making this new album? &#8220;<strong>It was a challenging album for me.. not the creating aspect, more the business aspect.. being independent isn&#8217;t always easy, but worth it.<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nFavorite show on Netflix ? &#8220;<strong>Hmmm&#8230;. that&#8217;s tough. I&#8217;m more of an HBO type of girl..<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nWould you like to act again? &#8220;<strong>I have some great opportunities coming my way&#8230; I would love to. \ud83d\ude42<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nAny advice for people struggling to make their own dreams come true? &#8220;<strong>Don&#8217;t get distracted by anyone else&#8217;s noise. Focus on the work and focus on loving yourself&#8230; then you can show up for everything else!<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nWhat is the album&#8217;s theme going to be about? &#8220;<strong>There are some darker songs on this album, as well as hope and some themes that represent what we&#8217;re going through politically as well.<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nIf you could song for the soundtrack of any show currently airing, which show would you choose? &#8220;<strong>Good question&#8230; #BigLittleLies<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nIs there a chance there could be a Johnnson &#038; McAuley 2? &#8220;<strong>You never know&#8230;. @bleutopia<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nDo you already have ideas for the cover\/look of your new album? &#8220;<strong>Yes&#8230;..!<\/strong>&#8221;<br \/>\nJust throwing it out there, you would SLAY Ariel in the live action version of The Little Mermaid! &#8220;<strong>You&#8217;re not the first person who&#8217;s told me that &#x1f61d; Are you kidding me? Ariel? First song I sang when I was little was &#8220;look at this stuff&#8230;<\/strong>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Finally, she ended with this:<br \/>\n<em>Great questions!! I will do this more often.. thank you for your patience. I&#8217;m pouring my heart &#038; soul into the album and the fact that you&#8217;ll be listening to it is very important to me.
