January 25, 2017  •  Leave a Comment

NEW YORK, NY - Valerie Orth is a prolific pop songwriter with a strong, feminist sense of self. Recently, Valerie has been revamping her sound and honing her skills as a multi-instrumentalist and producer with her upcoming EP, Wake You. The significance of Wake You lies directly at her activist roots and purpose as a songwriter: inspiring her listeners to make a change. Between songs like the ever-so-sweet "Pixie" and the borderline groovy "Call You My Own," this EP is the perfect way to introduce listeners to this latest phase of Orth’s career.

 

"I’m really proud to release Wake You. I’ve been working on it for over a year with 2 great co-producers and an army of supportive friends,” shares Orth. “Whether it’s pushing myself to write or mobilizing others to make a move, Wake You is meant to inspire the listener to go do what they love or be with the person they love." Stream the powerful and dynamic EP today through Consequence of Sound.

About Valerie Orth: A prolific songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist, Valerie's Brooklyn-by-way-of-San Francisco-influenced music is unique and authentic. Integrating live instruments with electronic sounds, her newest project, Wake You, carries the upbeat production and warmth of Sylvan Esso, the unexpected rhythms and percussion of Tune-Yards, and the dark vocals and trippy-ness of Portishead.

 

Valerie is a captivating performer, usually backed by her full band while singing addictively and playing electric guitar and Ableton Live’s Push. Her often-metaphorical lyrics are as spell-binding, and are steeped with palpable images.

 

Her songs take you on a journey through relationships and obsessions, yet Valerie is an activist at her core. Call-to-actions are even sprinkled throughout her lyrics: “make your move,” “get up, come and make some noise,” and “ask…knock, I’ll open up.” Her stunning Wake You EP is due out on January 27th, 2017.

 

In addition to her own art, Valerie is actively involved with Female Frequency, a collective dedicated to empowering women and girls in the music industry.
