Halsey

Ashley Nicolette Frangipane (1994), known professionally as Halsey, is an American singer.

Gaining attention from self-released music on social media platforms, she was signed by Astralwerks in 2014 and released her debut EP, Room 93, later that year.

Halsey is noted for her distinctive "indie" style of singing.  

Halsey's music focuses on her personal experiences and telling a story. She writes about relationships with other women in her music as a way of solidifying her bisexuality.

During the 2016 presidential election, Halsey was an avid supporter of Bernie Sanders and urged fans to vote for him. Following the 2017 Women's March, she sent out a tweet that promised to donate one dollar to Planned Parenthood for every retweet it received. She ended up donating $100,000 to the organization.

In June 2020, she launched The Black Creators Fund, founded to provide financial support, resources, and a platform to black creators.
