Chloe Moriondo first built a following through hook-driven indie pop marked by emotional openness before moving toward a bolder strain of dance-pop. The Detroit native went viral in 2018 with the ukulele-driven track “Silly Girl,” taken from her independently issued album Rabbit Hearted. Two years later she made her proper major-label entrance with the electric, ’90s-styled full-length Blood Bunny. That set gave way to an even more expansive electronic sound on the 2022 album SUCKERPUNCH, after which she teamed with producers Dillon Francis and aldn. She returned to a more stripped-back indie approach for the 2024 single “September” and the 2025 release “Shoreline.”
Raised in Detroit, Moriondo began posting video performances of material ranging from Edith Piaf to Rex Orange County while still in middle school in early 2014. By the summer of 2018 her channels had accumulated hundreds of thousands of plays, coinciding with the self-produced release of Rabbit Hearted., whose standout cut was the unrequited-love number “Silly Girl.”
The project drew interest from Fueled by Ramen, which issued her debut EP, Spirit Orb, on the Public Consumption label in April 2020. The following year she expanded her palette on the guitar-and-keyboard-driven Blood Bunny, whose tracks “Manta Rays” and “I Want to Be with You” became radio staples. After the April 2022 EP puppy luv she pivoted fully into synth-based dance-pop for SUCKERPUNCH, issued that October.
The electronic direction continued with the early-2023 aldn collaboration “pressure” and the Hell Sounds EP later that fall. Mid-2024 brought the Dillon Francis feature “Lonely (Planet Earth),” while September of the same year saw the release of the introspective indie-rock song “September,” recorded for the Life Is Strange: Double Exposure soundtrack. She opened 2025 with “Shoreline,” pairing fragile vocals with layered synth-pop textures.
