At 15, the young artist would sit in her bedroom where she would write and post songs on HitRecord, an online production company founded by the actor and director Joseph Gordon-Levitt. There she would attract the attention of artists around the globe, quickly becoming the most downloaded musician working on the site.
The producer, Brad Newman hosts this episode that follows a girl from a small island in Helsinki to the biggest stages in America. As one of her songs suggests, Peppina “makes make-believe believable.”
