Pop music often thrives in polished personas and perfected narratives—but Lisa Heller is done pretending. With her new EP, HELLO, MY NAME IS, she doesn’t just tell a story—she dismantles it.
Layered with emotional honesty and glitchy, alt-pop chaos, the project feels like an open mic night inside your inner monologue. Except this time, the insecure voice, the hopeless romantic, the people-pleasing empath, and the fed-up rebel all get to take the stage.
Six tracks, six identities, and one unapologetic core message: your complexity is not a flaw—it’s your power.
What makes this project so gripping isn’t just Heller’s uncanny ability to write lyrics that feel like they’ve been lifted from your Notes app at 2 AM—it’s the concept. Instead of packaging her story into a single mood or archetype, she presents each track like a character in her own internal universe. It’s self-reflection disguised as a video game, complete with “fighter selects” that bring each persona to life. And the best part? None of them are trying to win anyone over.
Take LOSER!, the sarcastic anthem that made an unexpected leap onto international charts. What started as a half-joke about falling too fast in love quickly turned into a fan-favorite—because sometimes love really does make you feel like an idiot, and it deserves a soundtrack. Then there’s people pleaser, arguably the EP’s emotional anchor, where Heller finally calls out the exhausting habit of making herself smaller to make others comfortable.
But it’s SO FUCKING WHAT? that truly cements her as a rising anti-pop hero. It's loud, chaotic, and soaked in exactly the kind of DGAF energy you'd expect from someone who’s finally realized they don't need to be palatable to be powerful.
And that energy spills right into her live performances. Heller doesn’t perform her songs—she lives them on stage. Each set becomes a rotating door of emotional archetypes, pulling fans into a whirlwind of catharsis, connection, and chaos. It’s no wonder she’s catching fire after touring with acts like Echosmith and COIN—she doesn’t just warm up a crowd, she rewires it.
With HELLO, MY NAME IS, Lisa Heller doesn’t just reintroduce herself—she invites you to reintroduce yourself, too. Not as one version. But all of them.
This isn’t pop music made to be perfect. It’s pop music made to be human.
