Orla Gartland announces new album 'Everybody Needs A Hero'

Following on from her highly-praised 2021 debut LP 'Woman On The Internet', Orla Gartland has now announced her plans for a new studio album, arriving later this year.

The new full-length 'Everybody Needs A Hero' will include the previously shared efforts 'Little Chaos', 'Mine', and 'Kiss Ur Face Forever', is being previewed by the new single 'The Hit', and is set to be released on the 4th October via New Friends.

‘The Hit’ taps into the good and bad of feeling deep empathy for another, when you’re so close to somebody that you take on their struggles and start to become the same person. Gartland describes the relationship in question as “like a voodoo doll thing… you’re so connected it hurts,” Orla explains “it’s a nice gesture, because you’re admitting you care about that person so much that when they’re in pain you feel it too, but there’s a point that it can go too far and that’s just not healthy or sustainable.”
