Suki Waterhouse has revealed that she wrote her song Lullaby after taking a sleeping pill.
The British singer/actress has reflected on the making of her latest album, Memoir of a Sparklemuffin, which was released earlier this month.
Speaking to singer-songwriter Sharon Van Etten for Interview Magazine, Suki explained that she wrote much of the new 18-track album “in the middle of the countryside” in Devon.
“I did a session in Devon in England where we were locked in the studio for a week in the middle of the countryside,” she said. “It was p**sing down rain. We had no access to shops apart from this place called the Co-op on Deliveroo, which is like English Postmates. So, it was just bad ham slices and cream cheese and that kind of isolation.”
The Daisy Jones & The Six star then recalled writing one of the songs after taking a sleeping pill.
“I also wrote a song called Lullaby there where I’d taken a sleeping pill and then gone into the studio, because the bed was in the studios,” she shared.
Elsewhere in the interview, Suki revealed that she was advised not to have so many songs on the album.
“Everyone was telling me not to put so many songs on the record,” Suki told her fellow musician. “I was fighting everyone and myself by the end on what songs I wanted to be on there, and it was constantly changing.”
The Supersad singer continued, “I changed singles really close to the dates. I’m always completely chaotic in my thinking around what should be on the record and what the singles should be.”
