Wasia Project joins host Raina Douris

Wasia Project is sibling duo Olivia Hardy and William Gao, who’ve been songwriting together since their mid-teens. They talk about melding their classical music upbringing with modern day pop on their latest EP, Isotope – and about how Will’s side hustle as star in Netflix’s Heartstopper helps keep them growing creatively.
