The Songbook: Zella Day

In the latest episode of “The Songbook,” Zella Day sits down for a beautiful rendition of the song “Only A Dream” off her latest EP “Where Does the Devil Hide.” A free-spirited songstress in the tradition of Stevie Nicks and Dusty Springfield, Zella Day steps out of a sweet haze and into the California sun with a soulful stoned timbre and lyrical eloquence above Tarantino soundtrack-worthy disco-dripping psychedelia.

She hinted at this uncompromising spirit on her 2015 full-length “Kicker.” The album ushered Zella from a youth spent under the watch of mountains in Pinetop, AZ, to beneath the glow of spotlights worldwide. In addition to putting up over 200 million streams, she invited the applause of The New York Times, Vogue, ELLE, Vanity Fair, and more.

Beyond supporting Fitz and the Tantrums and Miike Snow on tour, she has also graced the stages of Coachella and Lollapalooza. On this trip, she found a creative kindred spirit in GRAMMY® Award-winning Black Keys founder and producer Dan Auerbach. Partnering with his Easy Eye Sound in collaboration with Concord Records, she recorded her forthcoming new EP Where Does the Devil Hide. Zella introduces the project with “People Are Strangers,” a lush and lively single that marks the first chapter in her exciting new journey.

Zella Day is so underrated it’s actually astounding

[jaxs]

True talent shows when it's just the singer and their guitar. Her live performances are so amazing every time.

[Wooodstock]

I love how she explained that she uses the guitar as a tool the help her sing. I've always struggled singing and playing at the same time. I realize now that I overplay when I try to sing and play at the same time. Thanks for the amazing song and helpful tip..
