This intimate run is the perfect chance to hear Some Kind of Feeling tracks live for the first time in the UK, from fiery singles to deep cuts that showcase her evolution as a solo artist.

Some Kind of Feeling: The Album That Defines Her 2026 Era

Released digitally on June 27, 2025 (CD August 15, vinyl September 19), Some Kind of Feeling is a 10-track blend of blues, rock, soul, and pop influences – Orianthi’s most authentic and diverse work yet. She produced three tracks herself (“First Time Blues” feat. Joe Bonamassa, “Ghost,” “Bad For Each Other”), while the rest, including current single “Attention,” come from legendary producer Kevin Shirley (Joe Bonamassa, Beth Hart, Aerosmith).

Album Track Listing

1. Attention (3:48)
2. Some Kind of Feeling (4:44)
3. What I’ve Been Looking For (5:15)
4. Sharp Dressed Man (2:46)
5. Ghost (3:29)
6. First Time Blues (feat. Joe Bonamassa) (3:48)
7. Dark Days Are Gone (3:43)
8. Bad For Each Other (3:12)
9. Call You Mine (3:56)
10. Heaven Right Here (4:12)

Critics have raved: Blues Rock Review called it an “outstanding blend” with “fiery minor-key blues rock” on the Bonamassa collab, praising the question-answer guitar-vocal dynamic. Get Ready to ROCK! highlighted its consistency, while others noted its timeless yet fresh feel, drawing from ’60s/’70s roots with modern bite. “Attention” – a kick-ass power rocker about an ex’s drunk texts – doubles as a call for renewed focus on Orianthi’s solo artistry beyond her iconic collabs.

Standouts include the soulful title track, yearning ballad “What I’ve Been Looking For” (with Pink Floyd-esque vibes), and the explosive “First Time Blues” – a live showstopper waiting to happen.

Orianthi’s Legacy: From MJ to Solo Stardom

Over 20+ years, Orianthi has shared stages with Alice Cooper, Dave Stewart, Richie Sambora, Santana, and famously Michael Jackson for his planned This Is It shows. Her 2009 hit “According to You” cracked the Top 20 on Billboard, and her gold-selling Believe album solidified her as a force.

Yet her solo discography shines brightest – prolific releases across labels, millions of streams, and now Some Kind of Feeling cementing her as a fully-rounded artist: virtuoso guitarist, compelling songwriter, and powerhouse singer. This tour celebrates that independence, blending new era creativity with crowd-pleasing classics.
