ABOUT CHLOE

Chloe Moriondo professes to be an “internet kid,” yet they tackle overwhelming infatuation, listless daydreams, and first love with keen empathy that’s unsearchable online. With their relatable, confessional lyrics and idiosyncratic humor, the singer-songwriter has built a devoted fanbase of millions, sharing their authentic self to create a genuine connection with their listeners. In May, Moriondo shared their critically acclaimed major-label debut album Blood Bunny via Public Consumption Recording Co./Fueled By Ramen. The release was crowned a “Critic’s Pick” by The New York Times, who exclaimed, “On the robust and vividly plain-spoken ‘Blood Bunny,’ Moriondo…is a pop-punk whiz, deftly hopping between musical approaches from spare to lushly produced, and emphasizing intimate, cut-to-the-bone lyrics.” Chloe has also racked up praise from Billboard, Pitchfork, PAPER, UPROXX, Refinery29, them., and more. Following Blood Bunny’s release, Moriondo made their television debut performing “Bodybag” on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, and appeared soon after on The Late Late Show With James Corden, where they played a dynamic rendition of “I Want To Be With You.”
