I can't wait for you to hear this song—Pre-save "Agnostic" now!!! PRE-SAVE AGNOSTIC🗡️🤍 One of my favorite songs I’ve written, “Agnostic,” comes out next week!! I wrote this song 2 summers ago during a New York trip, where I met Caroline Sans, the producer, at her apartment for the first time. We shared a lot of similar references off the bat, and she had prepped the starting points of this track after hearing my single that had just come out, “Juliene.” I immediately loved the drums and the...

DEMISE is out everywhere now!!! LISTEN TO DEMISE IT'S HERE!!!! I’m so excited that this one is finally out. I wrote it on a writing trip to Stockholm in 2023 after hitting what felt like a dead end with my writing, but the song felt like an instant answer and a sign that I should keep pushing (shoutout to my co-writer and producer, Robin Stjernberg, for finding the instantly hooky horn sample that had us all energized off the bat; the song basically wrote itself after that). It’s silly and...

Infrared is out everywhere now!!! LISTEN TO INFRARED I hope this song makes you want to move, go fast, sweat a little. It’s about surrendering to the heat of the moment—the excitement and fantasy of a new crush—and the beautiful uncertainty of opening up to someone new. It feels sincere, fragile, bold, confident, intimate, and vulnerable. It’s both tense and chilled at times, like a blade, and HOT like a hand on a stove. Send me your favorite lyric or a memory it recalled, or something it...

It’s finally time— “Infrared” is available for pre-save!!!!! PRE-SAVE INFRARED I can’t believe it’s finally here and I can’t waiiiiittt to share this song with you. It’s felt like a secret for so long, soundtracking my late-night walks alone and Citi Bike rides home in New York. It’s the first song I’ve released in a year, and it’s a step into new territory for me. It feels raw and exposed—and like a laser: pointed, direct, and clear. I’ve never felt more focused releasing something. Here's a...

“Hide Away” came out 10 years ago 😭 Here's a stripped down performance to celebrate its anniversary <3 Watch on Youtube I cannot believe it’s been 10 years since this song, my debut single and first release out to the world as Daya. It’s been emotional looking back at 16 year old me trying to navigate all that came after. I don’t remember everything, but I know it’s all stored in my body because I can still feel it— the elation, the raw excitement, the nerves & all. I remember things like...

Hey, How are you doing? It’s the end of the month, and almost the end of winter. I hope you are keeping warm and safe <3. I wanted to first bring attention to the Economic Blackout happening today in the US, put on by the People’s Union USA. The idea is to stop spending both online and in store, and to not use credit or debit cards until midnight tonight, to remind corporations of our power as consumers. I’ll be participating and I hope you will too. Where we do or don’t put our coin is a big...

Hi all ♥︎ So I was meaning to reach out at the top of the year until, only a few days into January, the fires in Los Angeles broke out. It’s been hard to comprehend the magnitude of what’s happened to this city that I’ve lived in for almost 8 years of my life, and it’s honestly been a shock so visceral, seeing entire communities wiped away, that it’s been hard to focus on anything else. I am fortunate to be safe from any physical damage; I evacuated with family and was very lucky to return to...
