WHAT IT IS: The dusky-voiced 20-year-old singer/songwriter from deep in the mountains of Arizona makes electro-charged, guitar-driven indie/pop that’s steeped in a magic of her own invention. Lacing her lyrical storytelling with sunlit melodies and heavy beats, the L.A.-based artist now delivers her full-length debut with an intimate but gorgeously expansive album. Revealing her power to bend reality into something enchanted, the songstress has already drawn raves from the likes of Interview, Vice, Nylon and Soma, which takes note of the “incandescent quality that Zella Day possesses… It resonates throughout her songs with flawless grace.”
