Orla Gartland never wanted to be anything but a musician. Something connected when she sang; she knew she had something worth sharing. By the time Orla finished school her audience was ready and waiting.
Orla’s first love was folk and cites Laura Marling as the first artist to really turn her world upside down. Over time she became drawn closer to the eccentric, the quirky, the energetic - artists like Imogen Heap, Darwin Deez, Regina Spektor and Fiona Apple.
When she felt she had finally found her voice, Orla began building a team around her and within a year she had signed a publishing deal. Next came teaming up with the writer/producer duo Ben Langmaid. Now Orla is ready and primed to release her first single, a feisty alt-pop track called ‘I Go Crazy’. The track is one of many of Orla’s upcoming releases that is firmly rooted in personal experience.
