Career

edit

Bird released her debut EP in 2015 titled Dreamstate via RCA Records.[4][5][6] On October 6, 2015, Taylor Swift tweeted an image of a list titled "New Songs That Will Make Your Life More Awesome", with Bird's "New Obsession" one of the eleven featured on the list.[7]

Bird is currently working on her debut studio album, which was predicted to be released via RCA in September 2018, but has not been released yet.[8] In early 2017 she joined Daya as support on a United States tour.[9]

In May 2023, Bird announced that she would no longer be releasing music as Frankie. She stated that this change was due to fans's inability to locate her social media as well as a change in musical style. Bird released her debut album Twenty Something on June 6, 2024, which includes the singles "Twenty Nothing", "When We Where Young", "Float", "If I'm Being Honest" and "Miss You Love You".[10]
