episode 14: Maude Latour
She'll stack a cappella harmonies and sing about just maybe being in love with her best friend. There's nothing conventional about Maude Latour, so it's not surprising she learned music through an unconventional method. When she was in Hong Kong, the world-traveling Latour studied the Suzuki Method, an immersive program where she learned how to listen to music before learning how to read it.
LaTour has lived in Hong Kong, Sweden, London, and now New York City, where she's a student at Columbia University. Her worldly ways and penchant for journaling make her a formidable lyricist; she's been known to use her powers in songs about ex-boyfriends, including one with a chorus she wrote in the middle of a fight. She's big on Spotify, where she showed up on Indie Pop and Fresh Finds playlists, earning millions of streams.
In this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, Maude tells the tales of some of those ex-boyfriend interactions that led to songs, explains the Suzuki Method, and talks about balancing her Ivy League education with her music.
