Goulburn\u2019s genre-blurring pop talent Isy Cappo<\/strong> has just dropped her debut EP, Somewhere in the Lost and Found<\/em> and the reaction has been nothing short of seismic. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Two of its lead singles had already climbed the Atomic Top 20, with \u201cSkimming the Surface\u201d peaking at #1<\/strong> just weeks after \u201cTell Me More\u201d first cracked the chart. With national airplay, social buzz, and a Triple J spin already under her belt, Isy\u2019s moment is erupting.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We caught up with her on Atomic Radio<\/strong> for an in-depth chat about the EP, the surreal creative journey that shaped it, and the chaotic clarity of being a young artist finding their voice.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A Pop-Soul Map of Emotional Geography<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s okay not to know who you are and where you are. That\u2019s kind of the whole purpose of Somewhere in the Lost and Found.<\/em>\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The EP is a seven-track journey through identity, heartbreak, overstimulation, homesickness, and inner growth. Written and recorded across three continents<\/strong> (Australia, Bali, and the U.S.), Isy\u2019s sound is globally rooted but emotionally raw.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe places changed, but I stayed the same,\u201d she tells us. \u201cWow. Am I a lyricist? That rhymed!\u201d<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

While her surroundings shifted, from the chaos of L.A. to the introspective quiet of Goulburn, a singular voice emerges across each track, thanks in part to a consistent mix and master team<\/strong> (Jordan Leonard and Ben Feggans, respectively), as well as a standout guest mix from Robby De Sa<\/em> on \u201cDancefloor.\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been complimented that my sound stayed cohesive despite working with different producers, and I\u2019m really grateful for that.\u201d<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Cabo Catalyst<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the emotional heartbeats of the EP, \u201cHigh,\u201d was born in an unexpected writing session in Cabo, Mexico, after a bout of food poisoning, no less.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was sick. I wasn\u2019t vibing. And someone said, \u2018let\u2019s write about that.\u2019 That writing session helped birth the whole EP\u2019s theme.\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In that moment of disorientation, the lyric \u201cSomewhere in the lost and found\u201d<\/em> surfaced and stuck. It became an emotional compass<\/strong> for the entire record.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Funk, Feels & Buffy the Dog<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When asked about unexpected sonic influences, Isy grins: \u201cProbably Jamiroquai.\u201d<\/em> That funk energy pulses through \u201cHigh,\u201d the final track of the EP. Produced by Ryan Harvey<\/strong> (whose credits include Leon Bridges), the song even features a cameo from Harvey\u2019s dog, Buffy<\/strong>, whose barks made it into the final mix.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe\u2019s in the credits, we had to negotiate his cut!\u201d she jokes.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSkimming the Surface,\u201d on the other hand, was born in Bali during an eight-hour session<\/strong> with Aidan Hogg <\/strong>(whose credits include G Flip), following a six-hour flight. \u201cThey threw me into the studio straight away. I was jetlagged, but it worked.\u201d<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a happy beat, but listen to the lyrics and you\u2019ll ask, is this girl okay?\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
