London-born Lennox, who lives in Los Angeles,
has released two of those songs, "Love Like That" and "Wherever
You Go", this year. Her EP is scheduled for release in 2022.
Reuters spoke to Lennox about her music and working with her
mother.
Below are excerpts edited for length and clarity.
Q: What is your latest track 'Love Like That' about?
Lennox: "It is about falling in love with somebody where it
finally feels like the right person, but it's more so to me
about falling in love with yourself and finding that level of
self-acceptance and being able just to feel comfortable in your
own skin. I wanted to uplift people and make them feel just
that."
Q: Growing up, you followed mum into music but apparently you
were too shy to share your music with her?
Lennox: "The bar in my household for making incredible music was
really, really high - probably couldn't get much higher. So I
chose to keep my writing quite secretive.
"With singing, I was more open with it because I had singing
teachers at school. So I was doing a lot of concerts and I was
singing, but I didn't make it a point that I wanted to make this
my life as an adult. I wanted to work at it and make it
something that I felt proud of before I started to share it."
Q: It was quite a family affair producing music with your mum
and your boyfriend in lockdown - how did that go? What is Annie
like to work with?
"So there's a great level of respect in the studio. We both
listen. We both feel that the other person has something
interesting to offer and that's worth listening to. We're both
perfectionists ... Braeden's a perfectionist too.
"We really spend time honing every sound that's in there. And
... just spending that time really diving into the details and
the subtleties really helps bring out the best of the song."
