It is a privilege to welcome indie pop sensation (and fellow Kansas Citian) Lily Kincade to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.
Lily’s unique approach to fan engagement, characterized by her boundless charisma and savvy yet sincere use of social media, has formed an incredible bond with her fans over the years. Unlike some artists who take offense at comparisons, Lily Kincade embraces them as a way of connecting with her fans, most of whom grew up idolizing the same stars she does (namely Lana Del Rey and Taylor Swift).
By populating her social media feeds with covers and memes of songs that her fanbase has known for years, Lily manages to create an in-language with her followers. This devotion to curating community amongst her listeners is what truly sets Kincade apart; she has a Discord page where she regularly shares jokes and edits with her fans, as well as a weekly “mental health check-in Monday” that has become something of a ritual with her 64,000 plus Instagram followers.
In addition to Lily’s mental health advocacy, her music has been noticed by various media outlets. Audacy, Entertainment Tonight Canada, MTV, PopCrush, and Rolling Stone have profiled her, and the Recording Academy invited Lily to perform on the Grammys’ website.
On this episode of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Lily Kincade spoke about her Grammys website performance and shared stories behind several songs.
