Frankie Simone drops the title track from LOVE//WARRIOR

Portland's pop priestess Frankie Simone premiered the title track from her June 1 EP yesterday at AfterEllen and today it's available worldwide on Soundcloud, Spotify, and YouTube. 

"Frankie Simone offers a vision of pop music as a conduit for collective enlightenment, self-empowerment and awakening. Pop rarely transcends the constraints of dominant culture — but Simone’s incantations of radical self-love aren’t just transcendent, they’re transformative."
- AfterEllen
