Frankie Orella bio:

Frankie Orella crafts raw, introspective pop that captures the beauty and chaos of being human. As a Nashville native, she grew up immersed in music–performing alongside her jingle-writing father, studying The Beatles’ discography, and playing in churches from a young age. 

Known for her candid lyricism, melody-driven songwriting, and hauntingly sad covers, Frankie has built a reputation for delivering songs that feel both deeply personal and universally relatable.

In 2020, she released Stages of Grief, a cinematic concept EP exploring grief as she grappled with her own adolescent loss of her mother. She followed it in 2023 with Sad in Paradise, an alt-pop EP that explored themes of mental health through melancholy beauty and unforgettable orchestral moments.

Now with her forthcoming EP, It’s Kind of a Mess in Here., Frankie shares an unfiltered look across five deeply personal tracks, grappling with growing pains, anxiety, and the fear of losing control, all while searching for moments of clarity in a world that never slows down. As her most pop-forward album, she combines catchy hooks with intimate songwriting and continues to carve out her own space with songs that resonate with anyone who’s ever questioned their past, their future, or the thoughts that keep them up at night.

— It's All Indie
At times the voice is sweet like the first kisses of a love affair and at other times it breaks down like the loneliness of heartbreak. At all times, the music accompanies with an intensity, rhythmic and sonorous, that perfectly complements the poetics.

Stages of Grief, by any stretch of the imagination, is not your average EP. It hits on so many levels, conscious and unconscious, that it should 100% be receiving more attention for the feats that it has accomplished.
