* ORIGINALLY AIRED August 21, 2021

On this episode of The Jeremiah Show, rising artist Hunter Hawkins shares the story behind her debut EP Phase—a deeply personal project shaped by change, independence, and self-discovery.

Hunter takes us through the evolution of the record, from writing her first songs after a transformative experience at a songwriting festival in Hawaii to navigating uncertainty during the pandemic. Along the way, she opens up about stepping away from expectations, leaving behind the pressure to fit into a mold, and learning to trust her own voice.

Each song on Phase captures a moment in time—family dynamics, emotional growth, and the process of rebuilding a sense of self. Hunter describes her writing as “photographs,” snapshots of where she was in that moment, giving the EP a cinematic, story-driven feel.

We also talk about her work as a filmmaker, her short film Window, and how storytelling extends beyond music into everything she creates.

This is a conversation about identity, creativity, and what it means to move forward without a script.

Listen now to hear the full story behind Phase and discover one of the most compelling new voices in indie music.
