Livvy Landin on Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, and Debut Single “Feel Too Little”

Host Jesse Jackson welcomes 18-year-old singer/songwriter, actress, and model Livvy Landin for a B-side episode of Set Lusting Bruce, spotlighting her debut single “Feel Too Little,” released September 1. Livvy shares growing up in Denver, Detroit, and Atlanta, her love of older artists like Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, ABBA, Kiss, and Bon Jovi, and how she first performed publicly at IMTA after her mom encouraged her to sing “Rehab,” leading to being discovered and connecting with her producer Tom. She explains her lyric-first writing style, using writing as therapy, and describes the song as inspired by a painful relationship where she changed herself to fit someone else’s idea of love. They discuss vulnerability, relationships, mental health, and music’s healing power, touch on Springsteen’s “Thunder Road” question, and she shares where to stream the song and follow her on social media. 00:00 B-Side Welcome 01:05 Meet Livie Landin 01:41 Growing Up With Classics 02:41 First Time Singing 05:38 Amy Winehouse Obsession 06:34 Michael Jackson Timelessness 07:50 From IMTA To Producer 09:00 Writing As Therapy 11:44 Behind Feel Too Little 14:36 Making Yourself Smaller 16:15 Springsteen Relationship Parallel 18:19 Marriage Is Not 50 50 18:56 Marriage Storytelling Pact 19:40 Single Out Now 19:58 Next Songs Still Mine 21:18 Album and Touring Plans 22:04 Auditions and Acting Dreams 23:44 Cover Songs and Setlist 25:02 Travel Bucket List 25:32 Mental Health and Healing 28:32 Thunder Road Mary Question 29:54 Where to Follow Livvy 30:54 Final Goodbye and Blessing https://livvylandin.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
