About Orla Gartland

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My first instrument was a violin; I had seen a ukulele on TV so when I chose the fiddle I was convinced that it was held like a guitar. When shown how to hold the it under the chin I cried for days and begrudgingly played it for 7 years What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? FIZZ, The Secret To Life Fleetwood Mac, Rumours Super Deluxe Edition Joni Mitchell, Blue Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Rumours’ - perfect album. Stevie forever Joni Mitchell’s ‘Blue’ - another perfect album, Joni forever FIZZ 'The Secret To Life' - amazing record from a great new band! Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Madison” There's a song called 'Madison' on my first record Woman On The Internet which is special to me because I wrote it with 2 of my best friends. That one is really fun to play live. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? My last London headline show was in a venue called Electric Ballroom. The room stretched back so far and my friends were watching from a balcony near the stage; seeing all of those people show up to yell my songs with me was so special. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? There are a few venues I'd love to play but my main dream is boring and simple - just continuing to release music that I'm proud of.
