**Editor:** Tate, thank you for joining us today! Your third album, “So Close To What,” is set for release on February 21, 2024. Can you share what listeners can expect from this new project?
**Tate McRae:** Thank you for having me! “So Close To What” truly reflects the emotional rollercoaster of adolescence. I’ve poured my heart into the lyrics, and I hope listeners can connect with the themes of self-discovery, love, and the chaos that often accompanies growing up. It’s all about capturing those moments when you’re searching for balance in the midst of uncertainty.
**Editor:** The title itself suggests a journey. Can you tell us more about the inspiration behind it?
**Tate McRae:** Absolutely! The title, “So Close To What,” embodies that feeling of striving for something that sometimes feels just out of reach. It’s about the tension and beauty of pursuing your dreams and navigating the ups and downs of life. We all have those ”almost” moments, and I wanted the album to reflect that chaotic yet beautiful journey.

**Editor:** Your new single, “2 hands,” drops today, and your previous single, “It’s ok I’m ok,” made waves on the charts. What do you hope this new track will convey?
**Tate McRae:** “2 hands” is about the struggle of wanting to support someone through everything while also recognizing that you can’t do it alone. The song captures that push and pull in relationships, and I can’t wait for everyone to hear it along with the music video. It has an energy that I hope resonates with my fans.
**Editor:** Exciting times ahead with your world ‘Miss Possessive Tour’ kicking off next March! What are you most looking forward to?
