Interview with Mia Rodriguez

We had the pleasure of interviewing Mia Rodriguez over Zoom video! Australian pop luminary Mia Rodriguez releases her first single of 2022, "Shut Up" alongside a rainbow-hued music video that stars Mia. Watch HERE! "Shut Up" follows Mia's viral success of her 2020 song "Psycho," her official signing to Atlantic Records in partnership with City Pop Records, and 2021 single "Billion Dollar Bitch" feat. Yung Baby Tate. Watch out. There's a new bad bitch in town. 19-year-old Australian singer-songwriter Mia Rodriguez is a force to be reckoned with, with her unapologetic attitude, unwavering ambition, infectious dark-pop sound, and trendsetting personal style. Named "Best New Artist" at the 2021 Rolling Stone Australia Awards (where she also took the stage for an immersive, show-stopping performance of "Psycho"), Mia Rodriguez spans the divide between alternative indie and melodic mainstream styles. Inspired by a wide range of musical approaches, from K-pop to hip-hop, the singer-songwriter-musician began posting inventive videos on TikTok, quickly building a fervent fan following now exceeding 2M. Signed as the first artist to the new City Pop Records label (co-founded by legendary Australian concert promoter Michael Chugg and his business partner Andrew Stone), Rodriguez unveiled her captivating debut single, "Emotion," in late 2019 alongside an official music video streaming now at YouTube HERE. "Psycho" followed and immediately, earning over 24.7 million global streams, and catapulted Rodriguez to the forefront of Australia's contemporary pop scene. A third single, "Beautiful & Bittersweet" – like both "Emotion" and "Psycho," – dropped alongside an official video streaming now at Rodriguez's popular YouTube channel HERE. Among the many accolades accrued by Rodriguez in just one short year include being named by Australia's national radio station as a "triple j Unearthed Feature Artist" as well as a prestigious "Unearthed Artist of the Year" nomination at the Australian Broadcasting Company's annual J Awards. Rodriguez recently offered a spectacular rendition of Rex Orange County's "Corduroy Dreams" as part of triple j's famed "Like A Version" series, streaming HERE; the session also featured a unique live take on "Psycho," streaming HERE.
