Amélie Farren
Bio
Amélie Farren started writing songs at twelve because she needed somewhere to put things. That hasn't changed. At 18, she writes alt-pop songs that are specific enough to make a listener feel like they're inside a moment or feeling they know well, but never had words for.
She started with choral singing at eight, and by late 2022 was posting stripped-back videos online with simple settings and two blue dots under her eyes, gradually building a following around her lyrics.
Her debut release, suffering, has passed 24 million streams. Unsweetened Lemonade (2024) went further, reaching over 70 million streams and finding listeners across the US, UK, Europe, Asia and South America. Not through one viral moment, but through songs that people kept coming back to.
Her debut album Airheaded, produced by Michael Keenan (G-Eazy and Bebe Rexha, Melanie Martinez) in LA, is a collection of songs about obsession, complicated attachment, and the odd parallels between the person causing harm and the person on the receiving end. pickuppickuppickuppickup is written from a stalker's point of view. TREAT YOU LIKE A DOG comes from the other side of that. shiverrr, Jump The Gun and CLEMENTINE cover similar ground. "It's an accumulation of memories, experiences and conversations, fragments of night terrors," Amélie has said. "It all got wrapped up together in my head and now it's an album."
Shows have moved fast. London and Paris dates in 2025 and again in February 2026 filled out. April brought sold-out headline shows across Australia. North America follows in May 2026. Amongst the headline shows, Amélie has opened for Amy Shark and Rag'n'Bone Man on their Australian tours, supported Cam on her UK tour and played with Bear's Den in Sydney.
In May 2026 she has a new EP coming out, Infanescence. Where Airheaded was about what people do to each other, Infanescence is about what time does to a person. nostalgia hurts opens the EP with that specific feeling of knowing you've outgrown something before you were ready to, memories of lollipop sticks, sugar free Coca Cola, and the curfew you were already breaking. The EP sits in that gap between still feeling like a kid and knowing you're not one anymore.
