Solitude: The Devil’s Worst Weapon
I’m sure you hear it all the time that humans are social animals. We need to spend time together to be happy.

<strong>In</strong>terview With ALMA<br />

Finnish pop-punk supremo ALMA<br />

is at the top of her game. <strong>In</strong> just 3<br />

years the highlighter-haired polymath<br />

has topped global charts <strong>with</strong> her<br />

incredible scream along hooks and<br />

irresistible melodies. “Chasing Highs”<br />

and “Karma” in particular reached<br />

platinum status <strong>with</strong> “Dye My Hair”<br />

going gold, she has written for the<br />

likes of Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus,<br />

Lana Del Ray, Charli XCX, Tove Lo<br />

to name a few, and has garnered fans<br />

the world over from Elton John to<br />

Dua Lipa who she worked <strong>with</strong> last<br />

summer in LA. Live, she has toured<br />

extensively bringing punk and pop<br />

together in a not to be missed show<br />

that assaults all the senses. A unique<br />

and talented writer ALMA is leading<br />

the charge on a new wave of female<br />

powerhouses that have something to<br />

say through their music. Engaged,<br />

forward thinking and opinionated<br />

she addresses issues from women’s<br />

rights to body positivity to sexuality<br />

to depression, drug use and anxiety<br />

head on.<br />

Now on the cusp of releasing her<br />

highly anticipated debut album Have<br />

U Seen Her?, we had the chance to<br />

speak to the Finnish powerhouse<br />

about self-worth, twin connections,<br />

fame and keeping level headed<br />

throughout it all.<br />

So you’ve literally just finished your<br />

huge tour supporting Christina<br />

Aguilera in the UK. How are you<br />

feeling?<br />

Uh, tired. [laughs] I’m good. That<br />

was an amazing experience and<br />

she was so nice and she invited me<br />

herself to the tour and I was very<br />

honoured that she wanted me like,<br />

what the hell? She’s a legend. I met<br />

her and she explained to me that<br />

she saw me at a festival where we<br />

played together. I played first and<br />

she played after and um, yeah, she<br />

just kinda loved my set and fell in<br />

love <strong>with</strong> my style and that’s how,<br />

and she was like, I want to have you<br />

on the tour and, and yeah. Then she<br />

got me and of course she did, she’s<br />

Christina.<br />
