In a recent interview with Allure, the 23-year-old songstress delved into the creative process behind “Empathogen,” citing musical icons such as Ella Fitzgerald, Chet Baker, and Sarah Vaughan as major influences. Reflecting on her growth as an artist, Willow shared insights into her evolving musical identity.
“I just grew up a little bit, and I really am starting to figure out what kind of musician I really want to be,” Willow expressed. “I’m settling into more of who I am. And that doesn’t mean that screaming and shredding on the guitar is not who I am because it is, but I’m going a little bit deeper. It’s about being a well-rounded musician more than anything for me and not being pigeonholed into any specific genre.”
