Self-Portrait: Stella Donnelly

Artwork by Mickey Miles

In our new series, Self-Portrait, we invite our favorite musicians to create an audio depiction of themselves through songs from the past and present.

Western Australian songwriter Stella Donnelly queues up a list of defining tracks that shaped the two great records in her canon including 2022’s jaunty and emotionally complex Flood. Jenny Hval, Broadcast, Orange Juice, Vashti Bunyan, and Alex G are just a few of the creative spirit guides at work.
