Recently hailed by the New Jersey Star Ledger as "Asbury Park's biggest star since Springsteen," FLETCHER is beyond thrilled to celebrate Pride at a venue that holds so much personal and historical significance. "Probably the most stoked I have ever been for a show in my entire life," said FLETCHER in a recent Instagram post regarding FLETCHER AND FRIENDS. "To be able to bring some pride back to my hometown means more to my heart that words can explain."

Last month, FLETCHER was awarded "Outstanding Music Artist" at the 34th Annual GLAAD Media Awards. In 2023 she will continue her "Meet Her At The Bar Experience," a program she launched last year in support of woman-owned queer bars around the country as well as GLAAD (so far raising $50,000 for their key initiatives with the support of FLETCHER's fanbase, brand partner JD Sports, and co-sponsor Lyft).

FLETCHER's powerhouse debut album Girl Of My Dreams arrived in September 2022 and featured the smash single "Becky's So Hot," which hit No. 3 on the iTunes chart across all genres and landed on Billboard's Hot Rock and Alternative Songs chart.

The album earned raves from Rolling Stone, (FLETCHER "is a rising star at her rawest...honest, and deliberate") Billboard, V Magazine, Alternative Press, Consequence, Vulture, and many others while her music has amassed over a billion combined streams worldwide. FLETCHER's latest single, "Better Version (feat. Kelsea Ballerini)" is available now on the Girl Of My Dreams (Deluxe) edition.

Known for her intimate and notoriously dazzling live show, FLETCHER has sold out a series of headline tours on multiple continents and performed at major festivals like Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Life is Beautiful, and more. FLETCHER performed on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and kicked off 2023 with a viral performance alongside Miley Cyrus at "Miley's New Year's Eve Party" on NBC before bringing her Girl Of My Dreams tour to the UK and Europe.
