I look up to Tegan & Sara, obviously, Adele and Natalie Maines from the Dixie Chicks. All these artists are strong in their convictions, and they haven't changed who they are for the music business. Mary Lambert adeleartistbusiness Change image and share on social

As I got older, I fell in love with Radiohead, and 'OK Computer' is one of my favorite albums of theirs. Sonically, the tone of the guitars on tracks like 'Electioneering' just rips right through me. Mary Lambert albumcomputerelectioneer Change image and share on social
It's an interesting thing about being a 'fem.' People automatically assume that I'm straight. Mary Lambert assumeautomaticallyfem Change image and share on social
