“After All” is Anna Orbison’s first solo release after working in bands, music, and musical theatre for most of her life. When she writes music, Anna combines pop, folk, and a variety of influences, creating a distinct style that is both lighthearted yet deep in meaning. “After All” is a catchy upbeat indie pop song about realizing that you are not with the right person. Anna wrote this song during a particularly challenging point in her life and relationship, as a way to sort through her feelings at the time. She has been writing and singing with the band The Sound of Ghosts for the last eight years. In her solo music, she combines intimate personal experiences with indie pop beats and melodies that fall well outside the band’s Americana Rock sound. 

Anna grew up in Boulder, Colorado and found a love of music and performing from a young age. She studied piano and flute early in life and later discovered her voice in the school choir and theatre programs at Boulder High. She attended University of the Arts in Philadelphia before moving to New York to pursue musical theatre. Anna performed Off-Broadway and in a number of regional theatre productions before making the move to LA. Once in LA, she acted in episodes of Jane the Virgin, Lopez Tonight, Guiding Light, and others. She also began teaching yoga at this time and has worked at many studios around LA sharing her love of the practice. After years of singing other people’s music, she began to explore writing her own songs as a means of moving through life’s challenges. Anna describes herself as being, “thrilled and terrified” to be putting her solo music out into the world.
