Mandi Crimmins

Chaotically-relatable rockstar Mandi Crimmins is a Los Angeles-based Berklee grad is known for her vulnerable raw lyrics and unhinged pop hooks that draw the listener in. Rather than hiding or denying her mental health struggles, she uses them to connect and relate to listeners also struggling with mental illness with a fierce authenticity that has garnered her a cult following, with the mental health community rallying behind every release. 

Since moving to Los Angeles from her hometown in Massachusetts, Mandi has developed her sound into a raw gritty realness that’s an addiction to hear. This gained the attention of alt-rock band The Haunt, who has served as a main collaborator of Mandi’s since. 

With her storytelling lyrics and vulnerability, Mandi’s music speaks for itself with its raw, real power that meets songwriting prowess – you can’t help but be addicted.

My music heals me and is for my community first and foremost. I feel that if I have to have had these experiences, I want something good to come from them. And giving others like me a sense of community, love and a safe space to heal is paramount to all purposes.

-Mandi Crimmins

Lose Control

In Mandi Crimmins’ new single, Lose Control, she chooses to share the story of a from a very dark and painful traumatic experience from her college days, in order to help others.

I was groomed and trafficked by someone older who I thought was my friend. It took me nearly 7 years and a lot of therapy to accept that it happened. Because accepting it happened meant accepting that I was never in control and that I was a pawn. I wanted to tell my story publicly without shame, in hopes that it might bring peace, validation, and community to someone who might be struggling with the same thing. 

-Mandi Crimmins

The powerful track is a bass-heavy, rock-fueled bop that’ll flood you with emotions. It sonically encompasses you, putting you into a trance, before the chorus really packs a punch and you’re raging again. The bridge features lyrics word-for-word from the diary Crimmins kept at the time the trauma happened.
