The Beaches' Jordan Miller on How Being the Last Girl at the Party Is a Crutch: Podcast
Briefly

'Last Girls at the Party' conveys a vibrant summer essence but contains deeper messages about vulnerability. Jordan Miller acknowledges her portrayal as the 'bad girl' and questions if her chaotic lifestyle is genuine enjoyment or merely content for songwriting. She explores her mental health struggles in songs like 'Shower Beer' and admits to using her chaotic identity as a cover for hidden anxieties and pressure. Recognizing the need for healthier practices, Miller underscores the importance of balancing chaotic unwinding with lasting mental health solutions.
Miller explains that she realized her fans have come to know her as the 'bad girl,' a real rock 'n' roll agent of chaos, and leaned into that identity.
If you listen to 'Shower Beer,' 'Last Girls at the Party,' 'Blame Brett,' it's a lot of like, me telling on myself regarding my mental health.
I was being honest with what I was discussing, I was saying what I was feeling, but I wasn't actually doing anything positive to change.
I felt like I was using that person and that identity as a bit of a clutch, instead of being honest that I was like feeling a lot of anxiety and stress.
