Ava Delaney Shares New Album ‘everything’
The multi-faceted music artist Ava Delaney first took the stage at four years old or a local production of The Sound of Music, playing Liesel, and practically didn’t ever leave. She claims that her mother implies she leaped out of the womb, singing Joni Mitchell and Norah Jones. She attributes her musical proclivities to the whirling sounds of sage lyrical ladies who fostered her musical propensity. She recently relocated to New York City to follow her musical theatre and music ambitions after earning her degree from The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.
Her latest offering, everything, is an imaginative and expansive collection of songs. The 11-track record was recorded in 2022 with producer Brian Kennedy (Rihanna, Kelly Clarkson, Rascal Flats, The Weekend) at his home studio in Van Nuys.
Ava Delaney went on a journey of emotional, artistic, and spiritual discovery, and she placed a great deal of importance on establishing a serene, potent studio atmosphere when creating this album. She kept a copy of “Be Here Now” and her deck of spirit animal oracle cards close at hand, and she burned Inscesnce every day.
With every release, she reveals the sincerity and sensitivity found in her songs, driven by her creative exploration of new sounds and desire to establish a stronger connection with her audience.
everything, is an empowering storytelling offering while transporting listeners into a realm of engaging soundscapes. This collection of tracks in particular seems to embody her essence as a musician and artist—yet another superb effort. She is dedicated to making music that resonates deeply with audiences as she progresses in the music industry.
On the release, Ava Delaney comments, “‘everything’ was a journey of fully investigating and giving a voice to all the swimming, yearning, curious parts within me. It’s titled ‘everything’ because the deeper I go, the more infinite words there are to discover within. This album is a quest to find an oar, a spiritual center, an anchor, within the wild whirling tides of the sea of life.”
Dmillyyy kicked off the month of love with the lead single, “Balance.” “Balance” was Dmillyyy’s first song of the year. The record served as a teaser for his new EP, Cupid Pack, which was released on Valentine’s Day. Cupid Pack is a five-track EP that dives into the intricacies of love. The EP is an eclectic body of work as it utilizes various genres of music, such as Alternative R&B, Melodic Rap, and Reggaeton.
Cupid Pack starts off with the song, “Thunderstruck.” The track is a record that features a wavy beat and Dmillyyy’s smooth flow. The sound is reminiscent of Jaden. The next track, “Balance,” is a fan favorite and for good reason. “Balance” has a bouncy beat that makes listeners want to groove. The record has a Drake feel to it. The catchy hook reels you in immediately. Dmillyyy cleverly sprinkles in some Spanish lyrics, which are a prelude to the third track on the EP. “Q.M. Interludio” follows “Balance.” The Latin Music interlude showcases the versatility that Dmillyyy possesses. The penultimate track, “WYGD,” is a downtempo, love song that is enchanting. The tune has a sample that blends well with the theme of the song. “WYGD” sets up the EP’s closer as “Madness” is another slow jam. “Madness” is the perfect finale. The sensual track embodies passion and love.
The EP’s introspective/extrospective take on love provides all listeners with songs that resonate with them. Although each song has its own flavor and unique sound, they still connect and carry a cohesive message. “Cupid Pack is an image painted to describe different emotions that may arise for particular love interests.” Dmillyyy continues: “Sometimes it isn’t that serious and just the feeling that you want to cherish. Sometimes the other’s existence makes you want to question everything and reflect back on your own life. Either way, both parties are living in the moment and letting that lead the way.” Cupid Pack is only the beginning as Dmillyyy has much in store for the year. While waiting for his next masterpiece, be sure to show love to the immaculate EP that is Cupid Pack.
