Info: Amelia Day is a musical jack-of-all-trades. Standing at the intersection of folk, rock, and pop,
Day blends heartfelt storytelling, raw delivery, and unforgettable melodies into music that feels
both fresh and familiar — like rediscovering an old favorite. A self-described writer before
anything else, her perceptive lyricism extends far beyond her 23 years, with lines reminiscent of
songwriting greats like Joni Mitchell and Paul Simon. As the Spokesman-Review notes, Day has
a signature style that features “wordplay, double-meanings and rhythmic variations,” with
themes ranging from journeying into adulthood to climate change. Many of Day’s songs are also
shaped by her intimate relationships, where her queerness and candor take center stage. Day’s
upcoming EP EGO TRIP is her most personal project yet. Lead single “Lady Los Angeles”
traces the sting of betrayal after discovering infidelity, while the rest of the EP takes listeners on
an intimate journey through her grieving process.
