120 - Trusting the Inner World

Emma O’Halloran opens up about what drives her to make music—not from an external push to “say something,” but from an internal urge that feels inseparable from who she is. She reflects on creating music that channels emotion directly, sometimes bypassing traditional ideas of form or intellectual justification. Along the way, she unpacks her resistance to the “tortured artist” myth, the layered honesty she seeks in her work, and how trusting her inner world has shaped her creative path.micro/Maker episodes release every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday!Listen to music/Maker with Tyler Kline wherever you get podcasts, or at musicmakerpodcast.com.Support Loose Leaf Transmissions on Patreon.Follow us on Instagram @loose.leaf.transmissions.micro/Maker is a production of Loose Leaf Transmissions: Made for All Ears.
