Dorian Electra

Today, “pop star who defies genres” (NYT) Dorian Electra has confirmed “Fanfare - The World Tour” making 32-stops across Europe and the US kicking off in Warsaw, Poland on January 18. Support for the tour includes Frost Children, The Hellp, Uffie, Izzy Spears, Thoom, grandma, Babymorroco, and Club Eat. On Oct 26, Electra will celebrate the release of their new album Fanfare with a blowout hometown performance at LA’s the Fonda and in November and December, Electra will play at Primavera Sound Festival in Argentina, Brazil and Colombia.    

 

Fanfare has earned a slate of critical praise from Billboard, VMan, Dazed, The Needle Drop and more. Electra’s third studio album explores parasocial relationships, from the claims we stake on celebrities’ lives to taking in obsession, idolatry and pop culture as modern mythology. It blurs the lines between love and hate, fandom and control. It was written alongside longtime collaborators Clarence Clarity and Weston Allen, Casey MQ, Count Baldor and Klaxons’ Jamie Reynolds. Fanare blends sounds from pop to metal, jazz and classical — elevating them all in a distinctly Dorian Electra perspective. 

 

Those yet enlightened must revisit Electra’s first two albums - the world building 2019 album Flamboyant and 2020’s edgy, provocative My Agenda. Dorian’s music masterfully blends together an assortment of genres, including pop, metal, jazz, medieval, epic baroque, classical, EDM, and more. It’s why they’ve been able to collaborate with such a wide range of artists like Lady Gaga, Tove Lo, Charli XCX, 100 gecs, The Village People, Pussy Riot, Rebecca Black, and more. Electra spent most of 2022 busy at work on their forthcoming project, which sees them examining the socio-political effects of internet culture and the rise of the parasocial relationship.
