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. The LA-and-Austin-based singer/songwriter returns in 2022 with Sunday In Heaven, produced by Jay Joyce (Cage The Elephant, Emmylou Harris), with additional production by John Velasquez and Alex Casnoff. Introduced by the previously released tracks "Golden," "Dance For Love," "Girls," "Radio Silence" and "Mushroom Punch," the record also features guest contributions by the likes of Autolux's Carla Azar and Cage The Elephant's Daniel Tichneor. With every new album an artist makes, there's an evolution, another chapter; for Zella Day-Sunday In Heaven, is a whole other book. It's not so much that it's a step away from her debut Kicker-although this new LP's richness, ambition, and bare-bones intimacy is significant. It's that Zella has entered a new era personally, and the effect of this on her music is pronounced and powerful, creating an album that is lightyears forward in sound and scope from its predecessor.
