a high-concept Jenny Hval streak.”

Eilis Frawley is an Australian-born, classically trained percussionist and an active member of Berlin’s music scene. Over the past decade, she has played drums for artists including Anika, Laura Lee & The Jettes, Hachiku, and Crowbaby, alongside her own projects Restless, Kara Delik, Party Fears, and I Drew Blank.
In 2018, she launched her solo project, blending samples, synths, drums, and spoken word to explore the complexities of the world around her. Her first two EPs were released on Reckless Yes. Her debut album Fall Forward (2025), released via Sinnbus and co-produced by Kat Frankie, merges indie, pop, jazz, and krautrock influences into a bold, cohesive sound driven by dynamic drums, spoken word, playful synths, and grooving basslines.
In a world where political expression in pop is often either loud and angry or non-existent, there is a need for nuance; Eilis Frawley achieves this feat with razor-sharp precision, while at the same time taking a playful and experimental, subtle look at her surroundings and inviting listeners into her very personal, wonderfully intentional-sounding emotional world.
Fall Forward was praised by KEXP, Bandcamp, Stereogum, Musikexpress, and Amazing Radio, and named Album of the Week on Deutschlandfunk Kultur. In 2025, she toured the album across Europe and the UK, supported Los Bitchos on their German tour, and performed at festivals including Eurosonic, One of a Million, Fusion, and Pop-Kultur.
