The Don’t Worry Darling star said she wrote some songs for her upcoming film and “lost confidence” in performing the music due to lack of practice.
In an episode of This Cultural Life, Pugh reflected on her musical ambitions, which began when a teenage singer-songwriter posted a video on YouTube under the name Flossy Rose.
