Career
[edit | edit source]Rodriguez began uploading cover songs to YouTube in 2014, and she eventually amassed a large following on TikTok.[1] She later credited Troye Sivan with inspiring her to become a singer.[2] In December 2019, she was signed with Michael Chugg's City Pop Records. Her first single, "Emotions," was the label's first release.[3]
Rodriguez switched labels and signed a global deal with Atlantic Records in April 2020 alongside the release of her second single "Psycho," which had amassed 11 million streams by July of that year.[4][5] Her third single, "Beautiful & Bittersweet" (stylised in all-caps), was released in August 2020 alongside a lyric video. It was produced by Dave Hammer of Sydney-based duo Lime Cordiale.[6]
Rodriguez was a presenter at the 2020 ARIA Music Awards, which was held as a virtual ceremony amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.[7][8] She made her live debut at the Enmore Theatre supporting Lime Cordiale in March 2021.[9][10]
