The Ringmaster Reveal: A Masked Singer Milestone

In 2022, Orrantia surprised both fans and judges when she appeared on Season 7 of The Masked Singer — disguised as the Ringmaster. Her dynamic vocal range and magnetic stage presence earned her a runner-up finish, cementing her status as a true performer in every sense of the word.

The show served as a major public reminder of her musical talent, reaching millions of viewers and giving fans a taste of what she was capable of vocally. It also built anticipation for what was coming next: a reinvention and a revival.

Connect with Hayley Orrantia

Many may recognize Hayley Orrantia as the witty, rebellious Erica Goldberg from ABC’s long-running hit series The Goldbergs. But for those paying attention to her trajectory beyond the screen, Hayley has long been crafting a powerful parallel path in music — one that now takes center stage with the release of her latest single, “Overthinking”, dropping July 19th.

Her evolution from actress to music powerhouse is not just a side project. It's a reintroduction — a bold step into a new sonic identity where heartfelt storytelling meets indie alt pop grooves, and where her voice takes on new textures, tones, and truths.

Original Songs in Original Roles

What sets Hayley apart from other multi-hyphenate performers is how seamlessly she integrates her music into her acting roles. Over the years, she’s had her original music featured in the very film projects she has starred in, an achievement that few artists can claim.

This unique synergy — of writing music that narrates the emotional tone of a project she also performs in — positions her as a rare talent. She’s not just acting or singing; she’s building multi-layered experiences for her audience.

Charting Success Across Borders and Platforms

Hayley Orrantia’s musical breakthrough began with her debut EP "The Way Out", which not only showcased her songwriting chops but also charted in both the US and the UK — an impressive feat for a debut artist already balancing a successful acting career.

With placements on Spotify and Apple Music editorial playlists, her music reached a wide and international audience early on, proving that Hayley’s appeal is more than screen-deep. Her songs reflect a soulful, expressive style that transcends genre, blending pop, soul, and acoustic influences into a signature sound that feels both timeless and contemporary.

From the sitcom set of The Goldbergs to the main stage of The Masked Singer, and now into the heartfelt, genre-defying world of indie pop, Hayley Orrantia is a woman in motion — and she’s only gaining speed. With the release of “Overthinking” and a slate of upcoming music, 2025 looks to be a defining year for this multi-talented artist.

Keep your ears open. Hayley Orrantia isn’t just stepping into a new era — she’s owning it.

A New Chapter Begins with “Overthinking”

Slated for release on July 19th, “Overthinking” marks a pivotal transition into a more indie alt pop territory, hinting at a matured sound and evolved storytelling. The track is reportedly the first in a wave of new releases set to redefine her artistry and solidify her place in the current indie-pop landscape.

Expect layered production, introspective lyrics, and the kind of vulnerable authenticity that draws inspiration from artists like Gracie Abrams, Maggie Rogers, and Sasha Alex Sloan — yet still undeniably Hayley.

If “Overthinking” is any indication, this next chapter is going to be bold, honest, and sonically captivating.
