Chapter 2: What inspired Maisie Peters' breakup songs?
And so to also experience such huge amounts of hate, which is what it was. There was varying levels, but it was a lot of just sort of blatant hate. And it was a crazy thing to experience.
Hi, it's Brie Player, the executive producer of No Filter. Today, our host and my friend Kate Langbrook has very kindly vacated her seat because she felt I was the right person to sit down with today's guest. I first met British pop star Maisie Peters in 2022 when she came to Australia supporting her friend and boss Ed Sheeran.
I remember watching her perform and being instantly struck by how sharp and emotionally intelligent her songwriting was. The way she wrote about relationships and heartbreak felt so funny and specific and painfully relatable. Afterwards I asked Maisie what inspired so many of her songs, and she said completely deadpan, mid-men. Average men.
Chapter 3: How did vocal issues impact Maisie's career?
Men who absolutely do not deserve the calibre of song being written about them. And yet somehow those men inspired The Good Witch, which is one of my favourite pop albums of the last few years. So today, to celebrate the release of Fluorescence, Maisie's new album, I'm sitting down with a slightly different version of Maisie Peters. One who's in love, more settled, and genuinely happy.
In this conversation, we talk about heartbreak, songwriting, the pressure of turning your real life into art, that viral Taylor Swift era's tour moment that brought her both enormous highs and brutal online scrutiny, and what it means to finally move on from mid-men. This is Maisie Peters. Okay, Maisie Peters. Hello.
Hello.
Welcome to No Filter.
Chapter 4: What themes are explored in Maisie Peters' album Fluorescence?
Thank you so much. Oh, my God. What a treat to have you here in the office. Luckily, actually, there's an event going on at Mamma Mia down the road, so half the office is gone because otherwise I think you'd have people clawing at the door.
Wow, I'm honored.
People are very excited. We did keep it on the down low a little bit that you were coming here because we thought no one will go to the other event. That's really iconic that I had to be like a secret guest.
Well, you guys, I got to Australia last night, and so you guys are my first guests. Australians on record.
Chapter 5: Why is happiness harder to write about than heartbreak?
To chat to.
To chat to, yeah. And how are you feeling? Because it's a fair way.
Well, it is a fair way, but the thing about me is that I am Australian, not in any way in reality, but in my heart. And so I really do feel like it's a homecoming. Like, I feel like I'm home. It's my hometown. All of Australia is my hometown. I'm not picky about the city.
Chapter 6: How does being in a relationship influence songwriting?
And I just love being here. I love Australians. I...
love the place out of the country i love cities i am just a fan so it feels great to be back well you you are amongst friends because everyone is a fan of you here as well we first were introduced to you when you came here with i'm going to say your boss yes ed sheeran now for people who don't know that that's your nickname for him. Explain how that came about and who Ed Sheeran actually is.
So is it a nickname or is it his real name?
We don't know. It's not for me to say. I do think that more people should be saying Ed Sheeran.
Chapter 7: What was the experience like touring with Taylor Swift?
I just think it's good for the world and for him. But Ed and I have known each other for a long time. I've signed to his record label. It's called Gingerbread Man. And... Yeah, we've been friends and colleagues, and I've been his intern for, wow, maybe, what was it, 26, seven years? That's a long internship, Izzy.
Yeah, I know. Don't you feel like you've done the work to get a promotion, to be properly put on staff?
I couldn't agree more.
Chapter 8: Why does Maisie consider Australia her hometown?
But also, you know, he's world's best boss. He's actually won it all seven years. And I'm just really honored to be part of the company. And trips like this, you know, he lets me come on trips like this and really spread the good word. So I am really lucky in that respect. And I mean, he did bring me to Australia. My first ever time in Australia was on his tour. And we went...
I mean, it was amazing. We went all around Australia, New Zealand, and I got to play... I mean, I think at the time we played the biggest ticketed show in Australia ever in Melbourne in... At the MCG? Yeah, at the MCG. So, like, best introduction to Australia ever. I actually went from Ed Sheeran Melbourne... No, I went from Ed Sheeran Sydney Show to Mardi Gras.
Oh, amazing.
In one beautiful night. Yeah, so it was this time of year as well that you came.
Yeah, it was three years ago. And funnily enough... Ed's in the country now as well.
Well, is that funny enough or is that a business trip? Is that what we call a work away?
I love that. It's like you do your business conference is in Australia.
Yes, it is actually a tri-annual business conference. It's just me and Ed Shebran. We're on sort of a team's meet every evening, just going through our KPIs for the year. So yeah, and it's important we do that in Australia because it's our favorite place.
So let's go back before Ed, when you were little Maisie. B-E, before Ed. B-E, before Ed. Little Maisie, now you're a twin. I am. And I think, are you a Gemini twin? I am a Gemini twin. Are you a bit woo-woo, like, into the horoscopes?
