A New Era of Creativity

The album features ten fresh tracks, with Orianthi herself producing three songs – including the gritty, blues-infused “First Time Blues” featuring guitar icon Joe Bonamassa, as well as “Ghost” and “Bad For Each Other”. The rest of the record, including the fiery single “Attention”, is produced by Kevin Shirley (Black Country Communion, Beth Hart, Joe Bonamassa, Joanne Shaw Taylor).

Watch the official video for “Attention” now on YouTube, and stream the track across all major platforms.

With Some Kind of Feeling, Orianthi pushes her sound into dynamic new territory – blending high-energy rock with emotional weight and signature guitar flair. The record shows an artist evolving with intent, stepping further into the spotlight with confidence.

A Legacy Beyond Collaborations

Though often associated with high-profile collaborations – from Michael Jackson and Alice Cooper to Richie Sambora and Dave Stewart – Orianthi’s solo career deserves equal recognition. Her breakout hit “According to You” hit the Billboard Top 20 and went gold, while her debut album Believe (Geffen, 2009) remains a fan favourite.

Her new material signals a strong return to form, showcasing not only her skills as a guitarist, but her growing stature as a songwriter and producer.

As anticipation builds for the 2026 UK tour, Some Kind of Feeling marks a thrilling chapter in Orianthi’s journey – and a reminder that her best work may still be ahead.
