Stella Donnelly Signs International Deal With US Indie Label

Stella Donnelly's rapid rise continues with today's announcement that she's signed an international (ex Aus/NZ) record deal with leading US indie label, Secretly Canadian.

The signing comes after label co-founder and co-owner Ben Swanson saw the Perth songwriter's "stunning" live shows at last year's BIGSOUND. 

"With her clever, yet direct lyrics, Stella’s work is threaded with a rare mix of wit and emotion," Swanson said.

"I couldn’t be more honoured to be working with Stella and cannot wait to hear what she unleashes on the world next."
