Next Thing

Greta Kline’s musical output as Frankie Cosmos exemplifies the generation of musicians born out of online self-releasing.
Kline initially built a reputation with
her prolific catalogue of bedroom recordings and as a performer and advocate of New York’s All Ages DIY scene.
The beauty in Kline’s writing does not lie
within immense statements and large gestures, but instead can be found in her ability to examine situations and relationships with heartbreaking sincerity.
In
2014 Kline released her first studio album, Zentropy.
Within months of its release, Zentropy became one of the most critically acclaimed independent albums
of the year and was named New York Magazine’s #1 Pop album of 2014.
In 2015 Kline signed to Bayonet Records, immediately releasing an EP where she
experimented with writing in an electronic setting.
The EP Fit Me In was well received and garnered a Best New Track from Pitchfork.
Kline then began
recording her next album appropriately titled, Next Thing.
Like Zentropy, Kline approached Next Thing by fleshing out several old home recordings, and by
writing half of the album from scratch.
Next Thing explores new emotional and instrumental territory for Kline.
