How did the idea for this song come? & Can you tell us the meaning behind the name “LIVING FOR THE WEEKEND”?
Living for the Weekend is about what or who you are living your life for. I like to leave it up for interpretation because it can mean different things to whoever watches it.
What’s the process of writing one of your songs?
Each song is different. Usually, my song ideas come when I least expect them. I even wrote a song on the back of an airplane napkin!
We are so excited to be premiering the music video for “LIVING FOR THE WEEKEND”. How did the idea for this music video come about?
I came up with the idea while listening to the song on repeat. I always knew I wanted a big party in this video, but after listening to the song enough times the heist theme just clicked.

Any fun moments while creating the music video?
In my behind the scenes video, you can see where my jacket gets stuck on my tights. The jacket had studs all over it and weighed about 15 pounds. Every time I bent down to do a certain dance move, I got stuck and we had to redo the take.
Do you have a creative say in your music and videos?
Yes. I am the only author of Living for the Weekend and came up with the idea for the video. I actually sent a 44 slide PowerPoint to the director, detailing the whole plot line and everything. Scott Rice, the director, is amazing because he is so dedicated to making my vision a reality. He was the first person who really understood the concept when I explained it to him.
Are there any other projects in the works you can tell us about?
I am going to be joining the Boys of Summer Tour next week!
