Zella Day Releases New Song & Video 'Golden'

Los Angeles, CA's Zella Day is thrilled to release a brand new song called "Golden" today via Concord Records. "Golden" is full of luminous harmonies, a shimmery, skirt-twirling disco beat, and one of the best choruses Day has ever written. A video for the song, directed by Corey "Titanic" Sinclair, and concepted by Day and Titanic, can also be seen today as well.

Says Day about the song, "The Genesis of 'Golden' happened as a tornado was tearing through Nashville and whispers of a global pandemic were evolving past a rumor. I was in Alabama writing with John Paul White as my phone was lighting up with messages from friends and family back home. I was supposed to drive back to Nashville that evening, but plans changed like the weather. In the stillness of the studio, 'Golden' was written communicating with powers beyond my control, expressing and coping with the magnitude of the situation by creating art; singing a melody into the moment to address its fragility and infinite beauty."

"Golden" is a taste of Zella Day's highly anticipated sophomore album, which is due out this fall. Recorded with producer Jay Joyce (Cage The Elephant, Emmylou Harris), the album features guest turns by Local Natives' Ryan Hahn, Day's longtime collaborator John Velasquez, drums by Autolux's Carla Azar, and bass by Cage The Elephant's Daniel Tichenor.

"Golden" follows the release of the songs "Dance For Love" and "Girls," and all of them will be featured on Day's sophomore album. The tracks together are a brilliant glimpse at what is set to be a career-defining musical year for Zella Day, whose songs have amassed millions and millions of streams already. In addition to the duet with Weyes Blood earlier this year, Day also appeared on Lana Del Rey's Chemtrails Over the Country Club this past March, covering Joni Mitchell with Del Rey and Weyes Blood in a symbolic passing of the sonic torch from one great LA singer/songwriter to the new generation. Day's forthcoming sophomore album follows 2020's EP, Where Does The Devil Hide, produced by Dan Auerbach, and released by Concord Records.

Day is a recently-announced addition to this year's ACL lineup for both weekends, in addition to playing this year's Beachlife Festival, taking place in Redondo Beach, CA the weekend of September 10th, 2021. The singer is also set to open for the acclaimed band Silversun Pickups on select dates this fall.
