Lizzy McAlpine | Older, Ceilings, Touring 

It’s interesting that Lizzy feels “Five Seconds Flat” was in some ways inauthentic, because having listened to and appreciated all of her work, including the current collection, “Five Seconds Flat” felt the most moving and also the most melodically compelling to me. It goes to show you art is completely in the eye of the beholder.

i like how she has no filter and just talks so naturally

LOVEEEEE that she chose to evolve regardless of what other artists do or what a label might advise her to do with releasing a deluxe version etc. YES LIZZY ❤️

Her best yet is older. Just finished listening to it.. really great. Reminds me of the days of sharing little clips on her insta or vlogs when she was still in school in Valencia .. very organic feel. excellent.

This is lethal confidence and certainty of self and I’m living for it 😭💕

It's so weird to say but she is one of the only true singer songwriters in the popular sphere. I love that she made a record with a band. It's so much better. In this age of AI generated everything, there is nothing like the magic of people in a room doing something together. We want to empathize with artists and Lizzy allows us to put ourselves in her shoes when she writes and sings!

I feel like we’re out to lunch gossiping about this relationship and I love it

I’m SO GLAD you left You Forced Me Too on the album ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITES!!!!!!

I remember pointing out in her last interview that she was still finding her sound. Glad to see that she is growing more into herself.

ilysm lizzy older is life-changing

Lizzy's new album is such a masterpiece, so relaxing and beautiful!!

oh my gosh, i was listening to this album and thinking omg did ryan beatty work on this? i checked the credits and everything then her saying that she worked with his band makes perfect sense.

I feel what she's saying about the band adding life to the songs. The instrumentals were the first thing that caught my attention in this album, it's so good.

I’m obsessed with Older, it’s so beyond good and mature and vulnerable and beautiful

this album is beautiful in every way. the lyrics and the meaning behind them are amazing but the actual sound of the songs- omg. i actually felt like i was being transported to a different realm while listening. absolutely insane and incredibly life changing. truly a work of art.

The sound is very different to her previous works. It’s a slow burn but overall the warmth and depth was killer. Older is her best song and a timeless one. The album is cohesive and mature. The album feels like an album track album with not many songs that stand out like Older and I Guess. I still liked it a lot and is a really good set of songs to add to her repertoire/set

lizzy's growth is inspiring. Older, as a music album definitely showcases her evolution which makes me proud to be a fan. Happy that she feels good about what is released and for the upcoming tour

So great to see Lizzy speak up for her needs regarding tour scheduling. This sets an amazing precedent and example of what's possible.

This interview is incredible. When I finished my first listen to the album, I had many, many questions. Most of them are answered here. Brilliant.

Older is magical. Lot’s of pure Lizzy there. She’s an absolute musical genius. Her lyrics are so authentic and moving. I love her.

I loooove Lizzy and I'm so happy she's happier now ❤ but I have to be honest, as a five seconds flat super fan, my first couple of listenings of her new album was not love at first sight (and maybe that's good) BUT I immediately saved All Falls Down, Broken Glass and You Forced Me To. Looooove these songs!!!!! I hope the album grows on me in the future... maybe when the winter arrives in a couple of months :)

older is my new fav record from lizzy, fell in love w it the second it came out

THANK U FOR KEEPING US FED WITH LIZZY INTERVIEWS

So bummed that she doesn’t look back on her second album fondly because not only was it the album that introduced me to her, it’s far and away my favorite body of work she’s released so far, Older included. All My Ghosts and Orange Show Speedway particularly really connect with me and feel so earnest, so to hear that she feels it’s a disingenuous record that doesn’t really represent her as an artist is really a bummer.

Lizzy is so my comfort person

after hearing the album, i'm THRILLED that i got tickets to see her in october 🤭 lowkey hope she plays doomsday because my show is on october 31st! (though of course i understand she doesn't want to do a lot of five seconds flat material. i'll be happy either way tbh)

I could listen to her talk forever

older is a MASTERPIECE! lov u lizzy

So proud of her and what she did with this album - it's incredible!!!!

I adore Lizzy and her new album.

dang this interview was surprisingly personal

I AM SO HAPPY I CLICKED ON THIS - threw me out of a rut genuinely - LOVE @LIZZY AND @Zach Sang Show ❤❤❤

staying is such a wonderful song!

yesss i wanted this interview so bad !!!

The constant reassurance from Zach 🥹💚

this is the best notification i’ve ever received

yay! I love her so much, thanks for this

omg thank god you kept You Forced Me To!! One of my favs

This new album is such a great record

now this is a therapy session i would listen to over and over again

can’t wait to see you in sydney in july, i got my tissue box ready !!! thank u for Older, it’s so raw and evocative and your voice is so emotive and amazing 😭💚 love u lizzy !!!

“You forced me to” is my favorite song she’s ever written! and genuinely one of her best, I’m clutching my pearls to think it almost didn’t make it

I found her after Arijit mentioned her... her music is wonderful, so happy to see her growth

I wish she would say which songs on the track list she liked the demos of i’m interested!!

Great interview gents. You have a way with bringing out deep conversations whilst also being non-judgemental. Massive fan also and Ill be wrestling people to the ground to get tickets for first ever Australian tour 😎

i love lizzy so much i am so proud of her 😭😭😭😭

Absolutely fascinating

i wore that same jacket she’s wearing today awww🥺🥺💖

I adore lizzy and your team zach, thank you again

Oh, that voice. And, love, Lizzy

Go ahead gurl❤❤

I’m a production nerd so I LOVE five seconds flat but my best friend loves more raw music so he loves this new album Older. I think its a good thing that her discography is a bit diverse

ugh i really wish she had a separate show in chicago!!

this woman will never dissapoint

LOL the last convo about sports was funny. Hoping to catch a concert this summer!! So looking forward to the live band element

So good❤😊

I wanna go to older tour

I need some older merch 🫶🏽

Lizzy how I love you

YAYAYYAYAAYYAYAYAY LIZZYYYYYYYYYY

ayeee 🙌

the way he just assumed they had a cat together is so cute though😭😭

Elizabeth McAlpine: Please come to Argentina, I want to listen to you live so baaaaad (it's a need)😭😭😭😭 I really like your music and loved older and I love you as a person 🫶❤

♡

I love Lizzy Mcalpine bruh

MAKING MY DAY WITH THIS

I can’t lie, I love her and I love her music. I feel like this new sound I loved sooo much more than a majority of her old stuff! I think the ppl who liked FSF won’t like this, and if you weren’t obsessed with FSF you’ll love this like me hahaha :) Obviously I loved ceilings and doomsday but I like these nuanced sounds so much more :))) But that’s simply my opinion, don’t kill me

My favourite lizzy album will always be "Give me a minute"

i hope she's happy. she seems really down lately even though she just released her album. i wished she knew what a masterpiece she just put out.

zach we see the space camp in the cornerr

could you pretty please ask her to ask her team to restock her merch lol

please make Lizzy material available on cd for purchase...yes I was born in 1973...and her material deserves a physical presentation/medium...

it still makes me sad to this day that she took indigo off of spotify… is that bad

All falls down is giving Andy Shauf vibes!!

not her hating on five seconds flat :(

this new album is a little underwhelming production and lyrics wise compared to her other work, but it certainly is relaxing and for when you’re in a specific melancholy vibe

broken glass 😍

Discazo

Lizzy's rendition of Wicked with Reneé Rapp was INCREDIBLE everyone go watch it

How can someone from Philly wear a Raiders shirt??

I discovered her when she released GMAM and I love it, FSF does have more teenage vibes lyrically but production is great and I like it because of that.. also her collabs in that album are beautiful. I feel like Lizzy is gonna regret in a couple years to have said this.

Idk how olivia rodrigo did 4 nights in a row in nyc 💀

I wonder what kind of zip up hoodie she is wearing because I want one sooo bad and I love her Interview she seems legit but also clueless and still a child at 24.....just saying and it seems like she really isn't fully invested into this whole "music industry". She will be a one hit wonder believe me on that.

Love her music, but in all the interviews I've seen she always tries so hard to be different and never has good answers to explain why her music is now 'different,' even though there's literally not a huge difference between Older and her previous album. Her answer about the 'energy' being different with the other bands is like okay? There's also a way to evolve without being perpetually negative and regretting who you've resonated with at the time

She’s annoying

She’s way too precious about her work and her “feelings”. People are going to your shows to hear songs they know, not just the new stuff. Get over yourself.

I’m surprised that 5SF became as important to me as it has, and I still have to listen to a good handful of it every week. Those songs give me something I don’t think any other artist has given which is so special. To hear that performing those songs live felt inauthentic to her as an artist saddens me a bit. All My Ghosts, Reckless Driving, and Orange Show Speedway have such infectious energies and great melodies, and so many others have drama, emotion, and theatricality. Just a stellar body of work imo. A bit of a bummer that the she may not enjoy performing those songs anymore, but it’s always healthier for an artist to move onto things that fulfill them more. I’m happy she’s in a better place and working towards a more sustainable touring schedule. It’s taken me longer to get into Older admittedly as I’m not usually someone who has the patience for a slower, more intimate record (I come from a rock/punk background). But it’s growing on me every day and songs like All Falls Down, Broken Glass, Better Than This, Vortex, and Come Down Soon have endeared me enough to continue to let it grow. Lizzy’s a special talent and I’m proud of her 💛
