In a Good Morning America interview, Olivia confirmed that all of the artists at her inaugural Daisy Chain Fields music festival are performing for free and that 100% of the net profits will be donated to charity. She said that when she decided to create this festival, the first person she contacted was Lilith Fair founder Sarah McLachlan.
“I think there’s this rhetoric that girls are supposed to be competing with each other for the top spot or there’s only this many resources for everyone and I think it’s an experience like Lilith Fair and hopefully Daisy Chain that will show us that we’re all way stronger when we come together and support one another.”
Other tidbits:
* three words to describe her new album: hopeful, melancholic, and introspective
* perfect wedding song: Melt with You by Modern English, Harvest Moon by Neil Young
* her parents told her that you can’t be a real artist or a real person if you don’t speak up for what you believe in
