Episode: Roy Lucian Baza — From Darkness to Pink Cowboy Hats
This week on My Music, Graham Coath is joined by genre-defying, era-defining singer-songwriter Roy Lucian Baza, all the way from Los Angeles—and yes, this one may inspire a little singing mid-podcast…
Roy shares the story behind his stunning artistic evolution—from the raw emotional depths of his debut, Roy, to the joy-soaked vibrancy of his latest era, Lover Boy Lucien (Pink). They discuss everything from musical identity to mixtape vs. album semantics (spoiler: we see you, artists), and the secret sauce behind a truly timeless record.
Expect tales of recording with Justin Timberlake’s horn section, working with Diana Ross’s musical director, and how Roy writes songs that sound like they were meant for movie montages. Plus, get a glimpse at what’s next—new duets, deluxe editions, and a third album that promises to bring the sunshine.
🎧 Featured Track: “On Call” — soon to be reborn as a duet with the brilliant Ariel
📍 Live Show Alert: Roy headlines Hotel Café in LA on the 23rd. Dress code? Pink. Bonus points for cowboy hats with chin strings.
Whether you're listening from the UK, LA, or even Brazil, this episode will leave you smiling, dreaming, and maybe reaching for your own creative “pink era.”
