This is Almost Famous, Beyond the Bachelor, with Susie Evans.
Hey, guys, welcome back to Beyond the Bachelor.
This is your host, Susie Evans.
Today I'm going to be chatting with Lolo.
She performed on Nick Fial's season of,
of The Bachelor. They were in New Orleans downtown. It was on Rachel Lindsay's one-on-one. So we're
really excited to jump right in and ask her all the details. Hi. Hi. How's it going? Good.
How are you? Good. Thank you for hopping on and joining us. Thanks for having me.
Okay. So you performed your song Shine on Nick Files, Stephen of the Bachelor. What was that
experience like for you? And how did it feel to share your music in a very different way than
what you're probably used to.
Well, it was, it was an interesting experience all the way around because
the, the process of what led to me, even being on the episode, it snowballed really
quickly.
I was on tour at the time, and we were up in the northwest, the West Coast, which was far
from New Orleans, which is where we filmed.
And I have been an avid bachelor watcher forever.
Me and my mom, it's like been our thing.
all the years that I lived away from her.
It was our thing where, like, we would watch it each week and talk to each other about it and
that kind of thing.
So, and I had just put out a record at the time, which Shine was on.
And I had had my management, I'd said, I would love to be able to take my mom to one of
those finale tapings one day.
And, like, can you basically just send my album and send a note saying, hey, we have
this client who loves The Bachelor and connection with her mom, whatever?
And so a couple of days go by and they called and said, we love this album and we want to fly her next week to film for Nick Vile season.
That's literally what happened.
No way.
So I just genuinely as a fan of the series wanted to take my mom to open out and it snowballed very quickly into this thing.
And when my manager called me, we were in Seattle, and he was like, are you sitting down?
And I was like, I'm not sitting down.
Should I be fitting down?
He was like, you might want to sit down.
I was like, okay.
And he was like, they want you to fly to New Orleans and film for The Bachelor next week.
And I was like, and so that was what happened.
We flew to New Orleans from the Northwest and in the middle of tour, which was crazy.
And it was an awesome experience because.
everybody behind the scenes in Bachelor World,
the production team and everybody.
Everybody was so incredibly nice.
And I've got to imagine I've never been a contestant,
but even just observing what we observed
over the course of that day filming,
things can change so quickly.
You know, you're obviously dealing with real people
in real circumstances, real time, real emotions,
real feelings.
At the drop of the hat, somebody can completely change their
somebody can, you know, go through something emotional, you know, whatever.
Yes.
And so as a person who's always watched the show, I love to be able to see a glimpse behind the scenes in that way.
And everybody, production-wise, was so incredibly nice.
And it was really lovely to be able to share this song that I've written,
which is just genuinely about finding your own inspiration, being okay with being who you are,
and being willing and comfortable to share that with the world,
it was a wonderful opportunity to be able to share a message like that through songs
in that kind of a space.
That's so cool.
So, okay, that makes me think.
I love that you were a fan beforehand.
I'm like, oh, my wheels are turning now.
And so I'm like, okay, it sounds like what you saw,
because I don't know if you still watch it,
but I was on the show a few years ago.
Yeah.
And the number one question people ask me is,
is it real? Like is it scripted? Do they tell you what to say? And so you being a fan getting to see
behind the scenes and then hearing your perception of it is so, it's actually really cool to hear
that you felt like it was very, it really is real people and real emotions. So I'm guessing I was,
one of my questions was going to be, do you feel like you believe more in reality TV now or less
versus after what you see, what you saw, I guess? Yeah. It sounds like you believe in it or it's, it's
seemed real to you? You know, I think the
thing about reality TV is that
whether it's, you know, something like The Bachelor or something like
a TV show where you're literally watching people's eyes, like keeping up with the
Kardashians, whatever it is in
from the viewer's perspective, I think what can get hard is that
I think especially like one of the things I feel as a consumer
of the Bachelor franchise. You hear a lot from, especially girls who just go through
difficult things that then air long after the fact and they've been edited and all of that
kind of stuff and they have to compress hours and hours and hours of footage and content
into one hour each week. Like, that's a challenge in and of itself. And so, of course,
all of these little moments, I think, that can or would help the viewer understand the
realness of it a lot more, that gets edited out a lot of the time because they have to
make choices of, okay, well, we can only keep this amount for this episode because we've got
to get from this plot line to this plot line, whatever that is. And so all of those, like the
blooper moment that happens yeah um at the at the women tell all or the men teller or whatever that
is they those kinds of moments i think if that was included more often throughout the whole
each each season i think i would in theory help the consumer yeah just to kind of be like
okay yeah this these are here of these real moments but again it's like it's hard for production
I think probably to have to make those decisions.
Otherwise, it would turn into a totally different show, probably.
I am with you completely on that.
And obviously on this podcast, so often we're like singing the praise of the show
because we're like, you know, it did this for my career.
It was the most fun experience or my wife was a fan.
Or like people say the most cool things and it's such a positive thing.
But this is one thing where I'm like, Bachelor producers, if you're listening, like take this.
This is a consumer of the show who was on the show witness things and like has really good feedback because that's always been one of my things too where I'm like I feel like there's sometimes an agenda and I totally get it. It's a produced show. So there has to be storylines. There have to be things that move the storylines along. And so things get cut. But it was so wild watching back the season I was on and being like, wait a second. There's so many personalities amongst the women that were just not.
highlighted but they were such a big part of my experience in the house and it gives you like empathy
for them because when I was seeing things happen in real time and then you're you know the whole
context context and you have like you know empathy for that person and then as a viewer you see a
villain and you're like oh they're the worst person in the world but really you know everyone's
a bit of a villain you know like everyone's got like has their moments of weakness or whatever
that's really interesting that I think if the producers ever listened to this
then that's a really good tidbit of just like you know let more stuff stay in like the
real the real real stuff well I also wonder you know I also just wonder I can't
even imagine what your experience or anyone who's got to really put themselves out there
to be on the show what the experience is like just even from what I observed in my
short time filming the feeling like for me i knew exactly what they were going to show because
you know we knew we knew what we were playing we knew going into it that they were going to use
three songs total they were going to use a performance of my song shine and then you know
because that was you know we had we had to agree upon all these things beforehand also there's like
music licenses and clearances and all these kind of things that have to go into place so there can't be
any surprises there. So we knew
this was the song they were going to use for the majority
of the time that we were going to film, then we were also going to do
one other song for extra pickup things that they needed, and then one
other selection to be played in background's moments
throughout the episode. We knew that going in.
So because I had parameters, I
knew exactly what to expect. I didn't maybe know exactly what
the camera angle was going to be, but I knew, you know,
what was going to go on versus
being on the show for the length of time that you all are there and you are not in the editing
room you are and also there's all these you know behind the scenes moments where people are
having their sort of confessional things all of these moments where you're you are really
not involved in a good and also not in control of what others are doing you're there having to
exist as peacefully as you can with all a similar objective.
It's got to be a pretty surreal experience in that way,
knowing you can't control, you know, your aspects of being on the show.
Yeah, definitely a wild ride.
Yeah.
My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly.
and now I'm seriously suspicious.
Oh, wait a minute, Sam.
Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit.
Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast,
so we'll find out soon.
This person writes,
my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot.
He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her.
Now, he's insisting we get to know each other,
but I just want her gone.
Now, hold up.
Isn't that against school policy?
That sounds totally inappropriate.
Well, according to this person,
this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age.
And it's even more likely that they're cheating.
insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get
this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's
boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not? To hear the explosive finale, listen to the
OK Storytime podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
The U.S. Open is here. And on my podcast, Good Game with Sarah Spain, I'm breaking down the players
from rising stars to legends chasing history. The predictions will we see a first time
winner and the pressure. Billy Jean King says pressure is a privilege, you know. Plus, the
stories and events off the court and, of course, the honey deuses, the signature cocktail of the U.S.
Open. The U.S. Open has gotten to be a very fancy, wonderfully experiential sporting event.
I mean, listen, the whole aim is to be accessible and inclusive for all tennis fans, whether you
play tennis or not. Tennis is full of compelling stories of late. Have you heard about
icon Venus Williams' recent wildcard bids, or the young Canadian, Victoria Mboko, making a
name for herself. How about Naomi Osaka getting back to form? To hear this and more, listen to Good

write songs. I take dictation. I didn't even know you've been a pastor for over 10.
years. I think culture is any space that you live in that develops you. On a recent episode of
Culture Raises Us podcast, I sat down with Warren Campbell, Grammy winning producer, pastor, and
music executive to talk about the beats, the business, and the legacy behind some of the biggest
names in gospel, R&B, and hip-hop. This is like watching Michael Jackson talk about Thurley before
it happened. Was there a particular moment where you realize just how instrumental music culture was
to shaping all of our global ecosystem? I was eight years old.
and the Motown 25 special came on.
And all the great Motown artists, Marvin, Stevie Wonder, Temptations, Diana Raw.

Hi, I'm Kurt Brown-Oller.
And I am Scotty Landis, and we host Bananas, the Weird News Podcasts with wonderful guests like Whitney Cummings.
And tackle the truly tough quest.
Why is cool mom an insult, but mom is fine?
No.
I always say, Kurt, it's a fun dad.
Fun dad and cool mom.
That's cool for me.
We also dig into important life stuff.
Like, why our last names would make the worst hyphen ever.
My last name is Cummings.
I have sympathy for nobody.
Yeah, mine's brown-oller, but with an H, so it looks like brown-holer.
Okay, that's, okay, yours might be worse.
We can never get married.
Yeah.

Imagine that you're on an airplane and all of a sudden you hear this.
Attention passengers. The pilot is having an emergency and we need someone, anyone to land this plane.
Think you could do it? It turns out that nearly 50%
of men think that they could land the plane with the help of air traffic control.
And they're saying like, okay, pull this, until this.
Pull that. Turn this. It's just... I can do my eyes close.
I'm Mani. I'm Noah. This is Devin.
And on our new show, no such thing. We get to the bottom of questions like these.
Join us as we talk to the leading expert on overconfidence.
Those who lack expertise lack the expertise they need to recognize that they lack
expertise. And then as we try the whole thing out for real. Wait, what? Oh, that's the
run right. I'm looking at this thing. Listen to no such thing on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts. And to your point of how things can change so quickly,
did you feel like when you were there, did you think the chemistry between Nick and Rachel, like,
did you think she was going to go all the way or and also did you get to see other women like
did you see him interact with any other women or was it just the two of them on that date i just
saw the two of them on that date and it was really funny because i remember thinking that the main
because also there like i there was a period of time where because we got brought in you know
earlier in the day even before they were there we had to set up all of our gear we had to sound
check we had to do you know various things before anybody else showed up and then they started bringing
in all of the extra sort of bar patron kind of people that they were bringing in for filming yeah and
and then when they when nick nick arrived independently first and he was there with us for a little while
um and then rachel arrived and what i remember thinking about their interaction was that they seemed
very comfortable with each other they didn't seem like you know how sometimes you can see new
people who are newer in a relationship and they yeah their energy still feels like they're still trying to
figure out what their dynamic is almost like they like each other but they're still trying to figure
out you know they were not they weren't all over each other but they were two people that you know
you could tell they really just very much clicked and I don't know whether I was struck with
the fact that I thought she was going to go all the way or not yeah but I do remember somehow
she had
I don't know
honestly because it's been
a while
but
she had
somehow
found out from the
producers
who was going to be
playing
she found it
it was going to be me
basically
and so she had
found my album
and she had been listening
to it
and there were a couple
other songs on the album
and so when I
had talked with her
She was like talking to me about my music and for a good chunk of time after the episodes air,
especially after they aired on TV and everything.
And, you know, she would reach out to me from time to time and like, I'm listening to the song.
It's making me so happy.
You know, like she had a, we had a genuine interaction about my own music, which I was really surprised by.
That was one of those things that I was, it was very flattering.
and very, very cool of her to go out of her way to, like, do her research in that sense.
She was like, I wanted to know.
She was like, I didn't want to just be, I didn't want to be caught off guard.
I wanted to know what I was going to be listening to because I guess that she had found out,
or they told them that live music was going to be some kind of part of the date.
And so she was like, well, who's coming?
I want to know, want to know what the music is.
And so they had shared it with her.
And I thought that was really cool.
That's really cool.
is Nick, I remember
Nick and my guitarist Josh having a really
funny conversation where
Josh is
he's
just, he's hilariously funny
anyway and
he loves to just
make light of every situation
and I think especially like
in a situation where you're just now getting to
literally meeting someone in an environment
we're like, okay, here we are with all these cameras on us
and now we're going to play you guys a song
and wish you the best on your relationship.
You know, it's kind of a really funny dynamic of how to meet somebody.
And so he was like, you know, asking him a typical question of like,
do you ever get tired of all those girls throwing themselves at you?
That's funny.
I don't really remember what Nick's response was.
But I remember Josh asking him that question.
And Nick kind of like looking at him like, I can't really answer this right now.
That is so funny.
I feel like those are two really good.
good like behind the scenes examples of i mean i've always known nick to be quite funny and like
cheeky and charming and just like has that kind of like lightness about him and i don't know
rachel that well i don't know either than that well but i don't know rachel as well but i've
met her and i've heard things about her and i feel like what you just described sounds a lot
like who she is you know what i mean like really cares and like takes a particular interest and
wants to like do her due diligence obviously with her career has been so successful and so
amazing so it's like it's just it feels very on brand for her to have like cared enough to want
to listen beforehand and then even like following up and like making you know texting you at a
later time and being like oh i'm listening to the song like i just feel so genuine and sweet i love that
it was it was it was very genuine i mean obviously i spent a day with her filming but you know it was
interesting, especially once everything aired and we saw what the, what the rollout of events were
in that season. And then also just watching Rachel's trajectory from kind of jump point start and
and then everything she's, you know, been through since it's she's, I think she's, I remember
thinking even in that day I spent with her, she seemed like a very grounded person.
She seemed very, just that, you know, she just seems to know what her purpose is and she, that's what she follows.
Wow, that's very cool.
So after the show aired and your music was shared, I don't know if it would be shared with a different audience or maybe like a, I don't know if the bachelor shared it with a larger audience.
Did you have any kind of like pivotal things that came from or came.
into your career after being on the show like did it jumpstart anything or did it open you up to a
broader uh demographic of people yeah i think that um it definitely brought several opportunities
a couple of really interesting touring opportunities and other um like feature opportunities um
and and then also interesting just kind of seeing the difference in the demographic because it
point i was like you know really playing to like an alt rock crowd which is not that people who
listen to alt rock do not listen do not watch the bachelor i think that there are lots more people
that watch the bachelor that cross-pollinate in too many different types of music um but i was
really surprised with the level of the outreach in general.
So like for the whole next 10 days after The Bachelor,
something as what seems maybe very insignificant to others,
but would be very significant to artists,
especially as you're kind of just putting a new record out
and those kinds of things.
I was like on iTunes, when you would pull up,
if you were searching something like my name Lola with like at the top of the daily searches for 10 whole days and like that's really a that's a big moment where you get to see the immediate turnaround of just the power of the outreach and and the I mean maybe in in some ways also like the power of how a show can be put together.
together so that a song like if they're choosing to feature a live artist it's like myself or
anyone else they they feature on the show they capture it and they also place it within the course
of the episode in a way where it leaves a really big impact on people enough so that then you
want to turn around and immediately like search for the thing that that you've heard yeah and
that is really powerful, you know, because I think, especially now in the way that artists in
general are trying to figure out way, always try to figure out new ways to, to reach their
audience. And, you know, social media has given us, obviously, a huge ability to reach so many
more people than we ever could in the past.
But there's something about, you know, millions of people watching you on TV at the same time
that, you know, it leaves an enormous impact.
And it was exciting to be able to see how my song being featured in a special moment in that
show not only could reach so many people, but then there were other.
ways in which that song was able to receive attention and be featured in other spaces and
other movies, TV opportunities, like sync licensing, all the touring, all the things that
happened. I ended up being on Rachel Ray as a part of that and doing a bunch of stuff with her
down at South by Southwest on the back end of all of that, which was really, really cool.
and and it happened like very organically out of the show out of the song being featured on the show and then of course you know of action that happened after that and then also the for that season they continued to use shine and two of my other songs like throughout the rest of the season as soundscapes and songscapes and so I was um and I think I'm assuming
as the music was well received.
But that's the best case scenario.
You know what I mean?
Obviously, I'm the kind of person
where I go into everything I do
and I hope for the best.
I don't assume it's all going to be a giant nightmare.
I assume, okay, we're going to do everything we can do
and make it, everything we can make it.
But you never really know what's going to happen.
So to see the response that we got
and then to have the ripple effects that happened,
it was really awesome.
Yeah.
So awesome.
Yeah.
My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly,
and now I'm seriously suspicious.
Oh, wait a minute, Sam.
Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit.
Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast,

And so this year, particularly, has been a big year of creating things so that next year,
this is the like input year so that next year can be the output year kind of thing.
So, and I'm working on a couple of different things that are a little, like all each in their
own little corner, but I'm making a new album.
I'm in the process of writing and recording all of that.
And I'm hoping to be done with all of the recording by October.
And I am working on an independent musical film.
It's also a Western.
It's basically like Oklahoma, the musical meets Kill Bill.
Sounds awesome.
It's a really incredible script.
And everything it's being created.
including the music and getting the cast together, all those kinds of things,
so that next year we can go film the project next summer.
And that project is called My Father's Daughter.
And it's been a really interesting project to work on
because you follow this girl who, it's set in old Western time.
You follow this girl who she loses her family due to, you know,
like a gang kind of trying to take over.
her family's farm. And then you follow her as she basically seeks revenge for her family.
But the way that the story is written, you stay, you stay so in her corner and you so want to
see her succeed. But the way that the story leaves and there's all these surprises that happen
and it's been really, it's been a really interesting and totally different, like of all the
songwriting I've ever done or any kind of projects I've ever worked on, it's been something
completely different than I've ever done in the past. And so the story itself and the project
itself is really fun to work on, but it's been really fun to do something that's just
completely different than anything I've tried in the past. And then I'm also developing a little
kids show. So it'll be like a song and story time kind of thing that I'm working on with
one of my longtime friends and collaborators. And so that's the thing that we're developing.
And again, that's been a brand new situation because it's going to be an
animated project so i've never worked on something where we like work with an animator and that's been a
really wild process um totally new but all three things that have been amazing to work on this year
and and we'll all start to see the light of day um starting kind of at the beginning of next year
and um but i'm going to have a couple of little singles that'll be coming out in the fall it's
music videos and some other stuff like that.
