We had a chance to talk to Tate McRae about “rubberband”, her career, and more. Some interview highlights:
Preparing for Live Performances
McRae shares with us the process of preparing for live performances. She explains that so much more behind-the-scenes than we think goes into putting together these complex live performances. She states that her performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon was a very long day of preparing prior to the performance.
When Does She Know She Has Good Song?
McRae reveals that she has her own method for when she has an idea if a song of hers will be deemed “good” or not. She believes that if she wants to put the song on in the car while she drives, that’s her measurement of whether she believes she’s on the verge of a hit.
Release Days Are Stressful days
When McRae drops a new song, the release day is filled with many tasks that need to be done. She states that people may think in hindsight that it’s a fun and relaxed day of finally releasing a song, when in reality it actually is a big day of posting and creating content for all the different platforms we have in our digital age.
