Singer and rapper has a skill for pop hooks that’s attracted Mark Ronson, Anderson .Paak, and ‘Euphoria’
Still, singing and rapping were part of her private world, and she would write songs in private. Her passion for writing soon translated to pursuing a journalism degree . She spent her college years balancing her studies with work, so music was further sidelined in her life. That final year of college, when she began going by Dodgr, she finally felt comfortable sharing her work with the public.I would make it for myself and maybe let a friend or two hear it,” she says.
After college, Dodgr’s first priority was financial stability, something that couldn’t be guaranteed from a music career. She began working at the North Post Journal in Humboldt County as a graphic designer, writing music reviews for the local paper on the side. Music was still a hobby — and thankfully for Dodgr, she lived in a house full of artists who could help bring her hobby to the masses. The Greenhouse, where she lived, also hosted shows by the likes of Kimya Dawson and Modest Mouse .
The local response to her show was immense, which encouraged Dodgr to release more music so she could have a reason to perform even more. Over the next couple of years, she began spending more time in Portland, performing for even bigger crowds while working day jobs at local dispensaries., the Last Artful, Dodgr has caught the ears of both Mark Ronson and Anderson .
“Let me just say that there’s some cool-ass people, and the experiences in the studios have been life-changing,” she teases.Euphoria , and now she’s hard at work on a debut album that’s a top priority for Interscope Records this year. “I’m a superunknown artist who was given that opportunity to shine,” she says. “I feel like I’m going to be popping up in not-so-low-key ways in 2020.”
