Stella Donnelly‘s rapid rise continues with today’s announcement that she’s signed an international record deal with leading US indie label, Secretly Canadian. The signing comes after label co-founder and co-owner Ben Swanson saw the Perth songwriter’s “stunning” live shows at last year’s BIGSOUND Festival.
“With her clever, yet direct lyrics, Stella’s work is threaded with a rare mix of wit and emotion,” Swanson said. “I couldn’t be more honoured to be working with Stella and cannot wait to hear what she unleashes on the world next.” Donnelly added, “I am so excited and grateful to be joining the Secretly Canadian family!
“I’m very grateful to be working with the people who, in turn, work with some of my favourite artists in the world and I know that Secretly Canadian is a nurturing space to write music and grow as an artist.”
Donnelly joins a roster that already boasts the likes of Alex Cameron and Antony and the Johnsons.
Meanwhile, to celebrate the re-release of her debut EP, Thrush Metal, Donnelly has revealed the brand new music video for her track, Mechanical Bull;
