Introducing: Might Delete Later
Time to get to know our nominees a little better. Might Delete Later shares songs that inspire her to create art and we chat with her about things (almost!) nobody knows about her... ;-) Can you keep a secret?
But before we head over to the interview, why don't you crank up some tunes to get into the vibe that is Might Delete Later? She's created a playlist of 15 songs that inspire her.
What was the first song you wrote about?
I thought "I'm gonna be the next Radiohead" :D So, I wrote a very obscure track in 3/7 or something about being a misunderstood teenager.
Name your biggest musical inspiration at the moment!
DJ Dave.
Craziest thing that happened on tour:
So I found out that I'll play at Tomorrowland in front of 15,000 people, on the second-biggest stage. I said "Leave a voicemail and you might hear it at the show." Guess what? A person who left a voicemail was actually there at the show and heard his voice. I'll never forget that. I even made a video about it.
Which song of your own means the most to you and why?
SHY, the song I released with Arielle Free in March. This song started from a voicemail about being self insecure, and every time I play it, I get emotional. I've been so self insecure for all my life and putting someone's thoughts into a song like that just felt like I've made it.
What did you want to be when you were little?
Britney Spears.
Artists people like if they'll also like your music:
Fred Again.., Rufus Du Sol or okgiorgio.
What is something (almost) nobody knows about you?
I'm a woman. Yup. Somehow, most people who spot a flyer in the city think that Might Delete Later is a man.
What do you listen to if nobody is around?
Lots of Coldplay.
Dream collab for your art or music:
Sam Smith, Disclosure and Rufus Du Sol.

Lastly, give us a random inspirational quote!
The worst you can get is a "no", so just go ahead and ask for it.
