![]() JL: What bands in the DC scene and beyond do you draw inspiration from? #Snail mail band full#LJ: Writing Habit was definitely all over the place and messy! Lots of writing songs in full and then throwing them away and putting down my guitar for weeks or months on end! Mostly the songs came from me being really upset or feeling a strong emotion (lots of crushing ) ) and letting myself wind down to a point where I could put my feelings into something more palpable. JL: What was your typical songwriting process for Habit? LJ: I started writing music in 7th grade and just started playing real shows in like October of 2015! When I was six I was playing like awful restaurant shows with my guitar teacher lol! JL: When did you first start playing shows and writing music? I caught up with Lindsey over email and asked her some questions about the new EP and her songwriting process. Written in the suburbs of Baltimore, Habit is a 6-song chronicle of adolescent restlessness and crushes. Snail Mail released their EP, Habit, on the DC label Sister Polygon Records on July 12, following Garageband recordings Lindsey released in May of 2015. Jordan has a quiet power to her songs reminiscent of songwriter Maryn Jones (All Dogs, Yowler, Saintseneca) in the way she encapsulates heartbreak and what it means to grow up. Having just finished her junior year of high school, Snail Mail is playing a weeklong string of shows in the northeastern US. Already a fixture in the DC music scene while gaining attention from publications such as the Le Sigh, Lindsey Jordan and her band Snail Mail recently went on their first tour. ![]()
