Orla Gartland Returns With New Song “Little Chaos”
Irish singer-songwriter Orla Gartland returned with a new song “Little Chaos” on May 15, 2024.
The song is the follow-up to “Kiss Ur Face Forever”, which was released last August.
It was written by Mathew Swales, Orla Gartland, Peter Miles, and Tom Stafford. Produced by Orla Gartland, Tom Stafford, and Peter Miles.
Orla Gartland said of the song, “I think a lot about how to move through the world alongside a partner and for a long time I wanted to show up in relationships as easy-going & palatable, never taking up too much space - now I can't think of anything worse. I can be loud, funny, clumsy, loyal, intelligent, annoying, caring, angry; this song is about showing up as all of it, all at once. I think dropping the act and showing your true self feels like the most vulnerable thing you can do.”- The accompanying music video was directed by Anne-Sofie Lindgaard.
Orla Gartland said of the video, “Where to begin. firstly, I love this song to bits and that can sometimes make for a tricky time when it comes to building the visual world (I'm like a protective mother, wanting the very best for my little song children). Luckily I had the opportunity to work with my absolute dream team on this music video; an unbelievably skilled, caring group of absolute talents who made the process & shoot so collaborative & special. I instantly had nothing but trust.” -
She continued, “Special mention to director Anne-Sofie Lindgaard - Greta Isaac & I were dreaming up ideas when Gret found a short film of Anne's called 'This Is Hardcore'. We were instantly obsessed; it explored so many of the feelings & themes I was trying to portray in this song (and the songs to come). We could not believe our luck when Anne agreed to come on board to direct & tell this story.”
