Adore Delano

Adore Delano, the stage name of Daniel Anthony Noriega, is a multifaceted American performer whose artistry spills over the edges of genre and expectation. Initially rising to prominence as a contestant on the seventh season of "American Idol" in 2008, Delano's magnetic presence and vocal prowess carved a path to a more definitive spotlight as a finalist on the sixth season of "RuPaul's Drag Race" in 2014. Following her success on the show, Delano harnessed the momentum to pivot fully into her music career.

With an unapologetic and raw punk-rock spirit, Adore Delano embarked on a solo journey that would resonate with fans across the spectrum. Her debut album, "Till Death Do Us Party" (2014), was met with acclaim for its candid storytelling and infectious pop melodies, setting a strong foundation for her subsequent works. Delano's successive albums, "After Party" (2016) and the bold, grunge-inflected "Whatever" (2017), further showcased her versatility as an artist unafraid to bare authenticity. In 2021, Delano released "Dirty Laundry," an EP that continued to explore her personal narratives through a blend of gritty rock sensibilities and anthem-like choruses, solidifying her status as a dynamic force in the alternative music scene. Known for her raw vocal style and emotion-laden performances, Adore Delano is not just a drag queen turned singer; she's a trailblazer redefining the boundaries of performance and self-expression in the music industry.
