Orla Gartland took to Twitter to announce a special pop-up gig to mark the release of her highly-anticipated debut album, Woman on the Internet.

The Dublin-born artist, who has resided in London (and on the internet) for the past number of years, revealed that her homecoming performance will take place at The Grand Social this Saturday (August 21).

Gartland first started releasing music by posting online covers on her YouTube channel. Here, she met collaborators dodie and Greta Isaac and steadily gained a loyal following. Since her debut single in 2015, the 26-year-old singer-songwriter has honed her craft and developed her lyricism with several EP releases.

The producer has had a successful summer so far with the release of her fifth single from the upcoming album 'You're Not Special Babe', and her euphoric set at Latitude festival. She has plans for a full album tour in the autumn months, but the album launch gig will be an intimate, acoustic affair. With limited capacity, entry to the event is expected to be in high demand.

Hot Press chatted to Orla Gartland about starting her own label, the London scene and embracing the uncomfortable in her album on our current issue, available to purchase online and in stores now.
