Orianthi’s New Single Hits Planet Rock A-List

Orianthi’s A-list Moment

Last week, Australian rocker Orianthi celebrated a milestone when her latest single earned a spot on Planet Rock Radio’s coveted A-list playlist. In a jubilant Instagram post tagging @planetrockradio, @woodwardavenuerecords, and @kevthecave, she exclaimed, “Yay my new single is on the A list!” The achievement promises prime daytime spins across one of the UK’s leading rock stations.

A Career Built On Rock

Orianthi Panagaris, known mononymously as Orianthi, first made waves as a guitar prodigy in her teens. Born January 22, 1985, in Adelaide, Australia, she moved to Los Angeles at 18 and soon caught the ear of music legends. She toured with Michael Jackson on his 2009 “This Is It” concert series and later became Alice Cooper’s lead guitarist. Her 2009 single “According to You” reached the Top 5 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, cementing her reputation as a formidable singer-songwriter and ax-wielding performer.

Rolling Out New Music

The track now riding high on Planet Rock’s playlist is part of Orianthi’s upcoming album, slated for wide release on June 27 via Woodward Avenue Records. Fans can pre-save the record through her link (orcd.co/OrianthiSKOF) and have already been rallying to vote for her lead song as Classic Rock magazine’s Single of the Week. In a parallel Instagram update tagged @classicrockmag this month, she encouraged followers to cast their votes, while also lining up interviews with Powerplay and RCMagazine_UK to discuss her creative process.

Fan Engagement And Beyond

Orianthi has kept momentum high by inviting fans to live shows and sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses. Recent posts directed audiences to her official site for tickets, while unveiling exclusive studio snapshots. Her team’s savvy rollout highlights the synergy between social media and radio support, creating a feedback loop that amplifies track performance and listener engagement.

What’s Next

With the single now baked into Planet Rock’s rotation and her album’s launch date on the horizon, Orianthi is poised to take her project to stages worldwide. She’s hinted at a headlining tour opening later this summer, with setlists that are expected to blend her signature guitar-driven sound with fresh material. Industry insiders say this broad push could see her peak spots on more radio playlists and chart listings in the coming months.

Orianthi’s A-list placement marks more than airtime; it underscores her sustained relevance in hard rock and mainstream circuits. As her album rollout unfolds, the celebrated guitarist is clearly in sync with fans and stations alike, proving that great riffs and timely promotions remain a winning combination.
