Laura Pieri is a multidisciplinary music and visual artist from São Paulo, Brazil. Not too long ago, she released a brand-new EP, “Frankie,” and a new track, “Sea of Tragedy.”
Laura Pieri – “Frankie” EP
The 4-track EP came to be when Laura Pieri was at the point of almost giving up on her career. Inspired by what her farewell to the industry should sound like, the story of Frankie, a woman reclaiming her power, was born. In an EP that cycles through the great, bad, good, and ugly of self-discovery, Pieri emerges as an artist who has rediscovered her voice. The EP was co-written with an all-female team of songwriters and executive produced by Skyler Cocco.
The EP follows the protagonist, Frankie, who represents a woman navigating male-dominated environments. She is a foil story for women in predatory industries. Inspired by stories like Frankenstein, Suspiria, and Persephone, the characters in the Frankie story represent not only the ability of women to adapt and camouflage according to the circumstances of the moment but also the sensation of imprisonment of needing to have a myriad of versions to do so.
Across the EP’s 4 tracks, Pieri guides us through Frankie’s journey from disillusionment, anger, and acceptance. “The EP was born out of a transitional phase for me,” Laura Pieri stated. “I was mourning what I believed was me needing to give up on my career. I had felt that walking away was a necessity, and instead set my goals into pivoting into academia with corporate America as the end goal. However, leaving one male-dominated field for another and feeling similar feelings come up made me see I was trying to run away from ghosts. Instead of running, I sat with them, and from that, the story of Frankie, a woman reclaiming her voice and power, was born.”

Laura Pieri always dreamed of being a pop star. In 2014, she moved to America and split her time between New York and Los Angeles to further her education and simultaneously pursue a music career. Inspired by a wide array of artists like Prince, Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, and Michael Jackson, Pieri hopes to blend her pop influences with her Brazilian roots and use her songwriting to connect with others.
