Life and career
Ashley Nicolette Frangipane (born September 29, 1994), known by her stage name Halsey is an American singer and songwriter. She started songwriting at the age of 17. In 2014, she signed her first recording contract with Astralwerks and released her debut EP, titled ‘Room 93’. Her debut studio album, ‘Badlands’, was released in 2015.
Halsey was born and raised in New Jersey as Ashley Frangipane. She is of Italian, Hungarian, and Irish descent on her mother's side and African-American on her father's.Growing up, Halsey played the violin, viola, and cello until moving onto the acoustic guitar when she was 14. In one of her first interviews, Halsey stated she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder around the age of 16 or 17. When she was 18, Halsey encountered financial trouble and music became a way to pay her rent. She played numerous acoustic shows in different cities under various stage names.She chose "Halsey" as her moniker because it is an anagram of her real name as well as a street in Brooklyn where she spent a lot of time as a teenager. Halsey originally planned on going to college to major in fine arts but after realizing she could not afford it instead enrolled in a community college as a creative writing major.
In an interview, Halsey allegedly used the term "tri-bi" (biracial, bisexual and bipolar) to identify herself, although she has since distanced herself from it, claiming she was misquoted.
Halsey began her career by posting cover songs on YouTube under her real name. In 2012, she recorded a parody of Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble" called "The Haylor Song" about Swift's relationship with One Direction member Harry Styles, and posted it on her Tumblr account.In 2014, Halsey recorded a song called "Ghost" and posted it on SoundCloud.The song gained Halsey attention and she signed with the Astralwerks record label. She subsequently released her debut EP titled Room 93 on October 27, 2014. Four of the five songs on the extended play contained an accompanying video.
Halsey toured with The Kooks in 2014 as the opening act.At South by Southwest in 2015, Halsey was the most talked about performer of the festival on Twitter.Through March and April 2015, Halsey led a co-headlining tour with Young Rising Sons.She also supported Imagine Dragons on the Smoke + Mirrors Tour during the North American leg between June and August 2015.
Her debut album, ‘Badlands’ was released on August 28, 2015.In an interview, Halsey described Badlands as an "angry feminist record," but later commented she had been misquoted and actually meant to refer to it as an "angry female record".In an interview with ‘Billboard’ in June 2015, Halsey announced that she had already begun writing material for her second studio album.To promote her music, Halsey has been featured in a few interviews and performances, including ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’ and ‘Last Call with Carson Daly’.
